(2) PS A baby robin falls from its nest after a tantrum. Its parent instructs it to fly back; the baby mimes increasingly outrageous alternatives--from riding on its parent's back to piloting an airplane. Finally, the baby is swayed by the mention of a spooky owl. Teague's amiable illustrations with gently cartooned figures and comedic "dialogue" (picture-filled word balloons) help to mitigate any fears viewers may have for the bird. A nearly wordless book about gaining independence (willingly or not).
