Desert Fun!

Hi everyone,

Is it hot where you live? Summer is almost here, and we’re celebrating the warm weather with an issue all about deserts. Meet a bunch of desert animals, make your own sandy picture and tell a story with Chirp’s silly story cards. I’d love to read your stories or see a picture of your sand art. Send them to me at chirpblog@owlkids.com. I can’t wait!

Meet the New Chirp Editor!

Hi Readers!

I’m going to be away for a while because I’m having a baby. While I’m gone my friend Katherine will be helping to make Chirp Magazine every month. Let’s get to know Katherine!

Jackie: Do you have a nickname?

Katherine: My sister and some of my friends call me “Birdie”!

Jackie: What is the best part about coming to work at Chirp Magazine?

Katherine: I can’t wait to see all the letters and drawings that readers send in.

Jackie: What is your favourite colour?

Katherine: Blue!

There, now you know a little bit about the new Chirp editor and you can ask her more questions any time just by commenting on this page or by sending her an email at chirp@owlkids.com.

See you later, alligators!

Fly Away With Chirp Magazine

Hi Readers!

The June 2012 issue of Chirp is all about things that fly, float, and glide through the air.

You can read all about five different types of airplanes in this month’s “Look and Learn” section. Have you ever been on a plane or seen one zooming through the sky? Check out this cool video of a passenger plane taking off!

Soar on, readers!
