Home, care, and family in nature

Emma Carlisle pairs a human family welcoming a baby with scenes of birds and other animals preparing nests and caring for their young. The book connects familiar acts—feeding, settling little ones to sleep, and gathering in for the night—with the idea of home as both a place and a feeling of comfort and belonging. Watercolor illustrations carry this picture-book exploration of shared family rhythms, offering a nature-centered frame for thinking about how young lives are welcomed and cared for.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A picture-book choice for children ages 4–8 interested in animals and birds.
  • Suitable for shared reading with young children, including families welcoming a new baby.

Book overview

Perfect for new or expecting parents, this glowing tribute to the welcoming and care of little ones mirrors our human world with the animal world.

Home is not just a place, but a feeling--a feeling of comfort, love, and stability. As gorgeous watercolor illustrations depict a couple welcoming home their new baby, Emma Carlisle brings young readers into the homes of animals building nests, feeding babies, singing little ones to sleep, and settling in for the night. Exploring the concept of homes and families in nature, this stunning picture book quietly and tenderly captures the rhythms of life that all creatures share. In a large format made for snuggling and sharing, A Home Is a Nest is the perfect gift for new or expecting parents.
