Bill Bowerbird and the Unbearable Beak-Ache is a delightfully fun and quirky picture book with vibrant, playful illustrations and rhyming story that your kids will want to hear over and over again. Male bowerbirds build elaborate structures in nature to by collecting colourful scraps and tidbits that will attract female attention.
