The Eave Swallow

Collect all pages-cleaned and sized to make
a miniature book for your dolls.

       Assemble a mini doll sized book: Left, is the Eave Swallow's illustration and verse. Visitors can collect all the bird illustrations and verse from "Bird Children" to print and construct a small book of verse for their dolls. Simply drag each png. into a Word Document, print, cut out all of the images the same size and staple the pages together at the left edge. Squeeze out some white school glue along the stapled edge of the pages and attach a cardboard cover.

Eave Swallow, in his nest of clay,
Always has lots of things to say;
He and his brothers, often race,
Catching the insects 'round the place.
