Naturalistic and charming.” —Kirkus (You Are a Raccoon)“The Meet Your World series, which opened with You Are a Honey Bee! and You Are a Raccoon!, offers young children information about animals that they might see in their yard or neighborhood park.

With bright, lively illustrations, here’s an inviting introduction to robins, one of North America’s most familiar birds.” —Booklist (You Are a Robin)
