Sobre IBD

The Cuckoo has long been associated with folklore and superstition, in this charming book we look at the rhymes and folktales related to this bird. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900’s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
