A non-chronological report on cuckoos

This non-chronological report for year 3 and P4, linking to the topics of animals including humans and biodiversity and interdependence, investigates the tree-dwelling bird, the cuckoo. The text explains how they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds so the host is tricked into raising their chicks, where they migrate to and from, and lots more.
