It is a beautiful spring day and ten baby birds are trying to fly out of their bird box - but it’s not as easy as it looks! They call on their garden creature friends to help them and, sure enough, by following the advice of a friendly frog, the first bird flies away - leaving his nine brothers and sisters behind. A bluebottle comes whizzing past and helps the next baby bird, followed by a playful grey rabbit and many more helpful friends until 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2...they all fly off one by one into the bright blue sky. Oh dear! The last baby bird is left behind all alone, but don’t worry... there is a happy ending! With delightful illustrations and a good rhythm that will help children read along, Ten Birds in a Bird Box is perfect for the blossoming reader.

Seeing the Apocalypse: Essays on Bird Box is the first volume to explore Josh Malerman’s best-selling novel and its recent film adaptation, which broke streaming records and became a cultural touchstone, emerging as a staple in the genre of contemporary horror. The essays in this collection offer an interdisciplinary approach to Bird Box, one that draws on the fields of gender studies, cultural studies, and disability studies. The contributors examine how Bird Box provokes questions about a range of issues including the human body and its existence in the world, the ethical obligations that shape community, and the anxieties arising from technological development. Taken together, the essays of this volume show how a critical examination of Bird Box offers readers a guide for thinking through human experience in our own troubled, apocalyptic times.
