Title:  When Blue Met Egg

Author:  written and illustrated by Lindsay M. Ward

Collection:  Children’s EZ Books

 

Blue spends months seeking the mother of the strange white egg that appeared in her nest one winter’s day, enjoying New York City with her chilly friend, but as the weather grows warmer Egg becomes smaller.  One cold winter day, Blue returns to her nest to find something wonderful: Egg! Or rather a snowball she mistakes for an egg. Blue puts Egg in a pail and sets off to look for Egg’s mother. But as the winter winds down and the temperature goes up, Blue is in for a sad surprise. Not to worry, though. In this sweet story of friendship, even snowmelt grows into something beautiful.

A sweet story that encourages little helpers to care for friends, with appealing illustrations depicting New York City landmarks.
