What’s on this page?
A big, gentle elephant looks up with a smile while Finch balances on top, eggshell and all. The elephant gives kids a large shape to fill with color, and Finch’s feathers and spotted shell are fun to finish with a fine marker.
What can you talk about while you color?
Finch is very small and the elephant is very big, but they’re friends. Ask your child: “Who helps you feel tall when you feel small?” Kids often name a parent, a grandparent or a big brother or sister.
A coloring idea from me
Elephants don’t have to be gray. Try a purple elephant, a polka-dot elephant, or a rainbow one.

Finch is the hero of my picture book The Bird in the Egg, a story about a little bird who’s scared of the world and finds the courage to step out of his shell. — David
