GO BIRDS:
A Child's Favorite Words
A vibrant, watercolor picture book following an energetic eagle mascot through a season of Philadelphia football — from tailgates to a parade down Broad Street — teaching kids the two most beloved words in every Philly household.
If it's not their first words, at least make it their favorite words.
Two dads whose goal was to get their child's first words to be "Go Birds" are on a mission. While they tried over and over again, "mama," "dada," and "ball" have all won out. Instead of making it their first words, they've made a pact to ensure it becomes their children's favorite words.
Andrew Rosenbaum
Andrew wrote Go Birds to bottle up the electricity of Philly game days — the tailgates, the chants, the parade down Broad Street — into a book young fans can return to season after season.
Jeff Wooler
Jeff brought the book to life with warm, energetic watercolor artwork, filling every spread with the crowds, colors, and character of a Philadelphia football season.
One team. Two words.
From the start of training camp, to a parade down Broad Street, a season of Eagles football fueled by the two greatest words in the English language!!!
"Random fans share a high five, at Birds games, that's simply the norm."
"The Linc is decked out green and white... there's nothing like opening night!"
"A touchdown to start — we needed that jawn — the stadium echoes, 'Go Birds!'"
"Postseason football is finally here, banners down Market and Broad."
"As two million strong holler, 'Go Birds!'"
Take the whole season home.
