The Purple Martin

Said Purple Martin to his lady:

"Here's a house all cool and shady;

I surely am a lucky swallow-

This beats my building plans all hollow."

        Assemble a mini doll sized book: Below, is the Purple Martin'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.
