About the EARLY BIRDS SERIES
The Early Birds Learning Series introduces toddlers to a range of
concepts using birds, including color, numbers, opposites, and more.
Developed by a team of birders and teachers at the Cornell Lab of
Ornithology, each book is designed to help teach youngsters the beauty
and joy of bird appreciation as they learn each concept.
Special features differentiate EARLY BIRDS from other board book
series, including: 1) Repetitive triplets and word tools on each spread
to describe what each bird does or sounds like, enhancing learning; 2)
Back matter with streaming HD bird sounds that gives parents and
children a real multi-media experience using BIRD QR, our free Android
and iOS downloadable app; 3) Special page tabs for little hands
