Items related to The Love Me Bird
Singing, "Love me! Love me!", the Love-Me Bird searches high and low for a true love. This sweet narrative by Joyce Dunbar is perfectly complemented by Sophie Fatus' elegant yet gentle illustrations.
THE LOVE-ME BIRD is the sweet story of a small bird who will go to any lengths to find a love. At her friend, Shut-Eye, the owl's coaxing, she primps and preens and plays hard to get, to no avail. Her song is not answered. But after Shut-Eye advises her to change her tune, the Love-Me bird finally finds her true love.

From Booklist:
PreS-Gr. 3. The silence of a peaceful forest, with blue and green trees suggestive of gumdrops and a landscape surrounded by swirls of blue hills, is broken by an insistent cry. "Love me! Love me!" calls a strange-looking bird with a hot pink beak, a dotted pink dress, and a tail that resembles a heart-shaped oven mitt. The needy, narcissistic bird interrupts the sleep of Shut-Eye the owl, who gives the Love-Me bird advice: act glamorous; act helpless; play hard to get; feather a fancy nest. Of course, the advice fails in fine comic fashion, leading the owl to suggest that the Love-Me bird change her tune to "Love you!" Wouldn't you know it; true love comes flying in on the next pink pair of wings. The cheery pastel illustrations, which fill with flowers as the pages are turned, perfectly match this whimsical tale with wisdom at its heart. Connie Fletcher
