Earth Day Week

In honor of Earth Day this week, we read a final Mary Lyn Ray picture book called Welcome, Brown Bird. It's the story of a wood thrush who travels between the homes of two boys - one who lives in hemlock woods in the north and another who lives in the tropical rain forest of the south. Both families protect the habitat of the migrating thrush because they so enjoy listening to its song. Many children said they've heard it here in New Hampton - have you?
