“All birds come from eggs. they lay eggs of different sizes and colours…”

The Book Fairies have been sharing copies of The Egg on this long bank holiday weekend! We know that lucky mini finders will delight in the fun illustrations and unique transparent pages that are used to give mini readers a unique insight into nature.

Were you lucky enough to spot one?

About the book:

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? See the egg inside the chicken and the chick inside the egg. Watch as the chick develops, grows, and hatches. Observe different kinds of bird eggs. Find out about the eggs of reptiles, fish and insects.

This title forms part of the My First Discoveries series, a unique collection of highly illustrated information books for children aged 4 to 7 that aims to awaken children’s interest in the wonders of the natural, physical and human world around them.

Happy finders!

Here are some of the amazing photographs we received today as part of our activity for The Egg – thank you to everyone who let us know that you found a copy!
