'Rocky and Ruby Robin have decided to build a nest. Before they start, they visit all their friends to see what sort of nest would be best. Each bird sells the virtues of their own particular nest design, but the robins don't feel that any of them is quite right for them.

'A re-telling of an original story written in the 1940s, this tale has old-fashioned charm and is presented in a lively, colourful way.' (From the publisher's website.)
