Ivy Bird

Ivy wakes with the birds. She flutters, she flits... then takes flight into the endless blue of imaginative play - foraging for nectar, pecking in the sunshine, splashing the day away. Introducing an aviary of beautiful birds to little ones, Ivy Bird is a celebration of nature, friendship, and the love and comfort found in feathering the nest.
