2.0

A short simple story for young minds.

Story: The story revolves around a blue egg, that later becomes a bird.

Language: The language is very simple, few words per page, lots of repetition, super basic vocabulary and grammar. This is probably the most simple of Ruth Krauss' books.

Characters: The main character is the blue egg that becomes a bird. A second character is a white bird who hatches the egg. Neither bird talks or has a voice. A third character is a flower that is in every scene. The flower starts small and grows. There is no story about the flower but readers will notice it's development.

This would be a great story for a super young storytime or as a short filler between longer stories for a young group.
