Perfect for new or expecting parents, this glowing tribute to the welcoming and care of little ones mirrors our human world with the animal world.
Home is not just a place, but a feeling--a feeling of comfort, love, and stability.

Exploring the concept of homes and families in nature, this stunning picture book quietly and tenderly captures the rhythms of life that all creatures share. In a large format made for snuggling and sharing, A Home Is a Nest is the perfect gift for new or expecting parents.Author Biography
