A House for Birdie Book

Poor tiny Birdie has no house. But Birdie does have friends.

Spike, Queenie, Goldie, and Fidget want to help Birdie find a house of his own. Birdie needs a house that isn't too tall and isn't too thin, that isn't too short and isn't too fat, and that isn't too wide and isn't too narrow. Will they find a house for Birdie before the rain falls and the wind blows?

A sweet and simple story about helping out a friend explains the math concept of capacity — what will fit in a container of a particular shape and size.

Birdie needs a home, one that isn't too big and isn't too small, to keep him out of the rain. Join this little bird and his feathered friends as they look for the perfect home. It won't be easy finding one that's the right size.
