the Odd Egg

This book by Emily Gravett is a pretty charming little kids' book about a series of birds who try to incubate a particularly peculiar egg. Spoiler alert - it turns out to be a shockingly reptilian infant once it hatches... Nice detailed entertaining pictures, prose thoroughly smooth yet still dumpy enough to introduce children readers to lots of cool new words in the field of animals, hatchering, etc. Worth a grab as a present for any 2 to 6 year-old bibliophiles in your life probably.
