4. Mueller, Doris (2008). The best nest. Mount Pleasant, SC: Sylvan Dell Publishing.

Abstract:
Long ago, the magpies' nests were the envy of all other birds. To help the other birds, Maggie Magpie patiently explained how to build a nest. But some birds were impatient and flew off without listening to all the directions, which is why, to this day, birds' nests come in all different shapes and sizes. This clever retelling of an old English folktale teaches the importance of careful listening.
