Book excerpt: The Tale of Jolly Robin by Arthur Scott Bailey NESTLINGS Of course, there was a time, once, when Jolly Robin was just a nestling himself. With two brothers and one sister-all of them, like him, much spotted with black-he lived in a house in one of Farmer Green's apple trees. The house was made of grass and leaves, plastered on the inside with mud, and lined with softer, finer grass, which his mother had chosen with the greatest care. But Jolly never paid much attention to his first home. What interested him more than anything else was food. From dawn till dark, he was always cheeping for something to eat. And since the other children were just as hungry as he was, those four growing babies kept their parents busy finding food for them. It was then that Jolly Robin learned to like angleworms. And though he ate greedily of insects and bugs, as well as wild berries, he liked angleworms best. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.
