Are you my mother
A mother bird sat on her egg
The egg jumped
“I must get something
for my baby bird
to eat!” She said.
So away she went
Inside the nest,
the egg jumped.
It jumped
and jumped
and jumped.
Until…
“Where is my mother?”
he said.
Out of
the tree
he went.
Down,
down,
down!
Plop!
The baby bird could not fly.
But he could walk.
“Now I will go and find
my mother, “ he said.
He did not know what her mother looked like
“Are you my mother?”
the baby bird asked a kitten.
The kitten just looked
and looked.
It did not say a thing.
“Are you my mother?”
the baby bird asked a hen.
“No, “ said the hen.
“Are you my mother?”
the baby bird asked a dog.
“I am not your mother.
I am a dog, “ said the dog.
“Are you my mother?”
the baby bird asked a cow.
“How could I be your mother?”
said the cow. “I am a cow.”
The baby bird
stopped to think
The kitten and the hen
were not his mother
The dog and the cow
were not his mother.
“I have a mother, “
said the baby bird.
“I know I do.
I will find her.
I will. I WILL!”
Just then the baby bird
saw a big thing.
“You are my mother!”
he said.
The big thing said,
‘SNORT!”
“Oh, no!” said the baby bird.
“You are not my other.
You are a scary Snort!”
The Snort lifted
the baby bird up, up, up.
Then something happened.
The Snort put the baby bird
right back in the tree.
The baby bird was home!
Just then the mother bird
came back.
“I know who you are”
said the baby bird.
“You are not a kitten
or a hen or a dog.
Your are not a cow or a Snort!”
“You are a bird,
and you are my mother!”
