Nerdy Birdy

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Matt Davies. Nerdy Birdy wants to fit in with the talented, attractive "cool birdies." When they make fun of his allergies and obsession with books, he finds a new crowd but eventually learns it's much cooler to celebrate others' differences. Cartoonish pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations portray birds of different feathers while emphasizing the story's important themes of avoiding labels and the need for honest friendship.
