With their colorful feathers, beautiful songs, power of flight, and
dinosaur ancestry, birds are truly astonishing creatures. But did you
know that the huge variety of known species includes daring acrobats,
inconsiderate noisemakers, ruthless hunters, wonderful swimmers, and
blazing runners? Or that the tiniest bird in the world measures just two
inches long?
Beautifully illustrated by Olivia Cosneau, Birds of the World
introduces aspiring ornithologists to these and other fun facts through
a range of coloring activities, removable stickers, and a short quiz. In
the process, children learn about the rich variety of birds living in
our world, including nightingales, swallows, hummingbirds, pelicans,
penguins, parrots, toucans, and flamingos, among others.
