Birds: Explore Their Extraordinary World

In this gorgeously illustrated volume, show your child what makes a bird's life so exciting and different from our own. From pole to pole, from snowy tundra to dense tropical rainforest, these flying reptiles, not too distantly related to dinosaurs, have managed to survive and adapt themselves to environments all over the planet. They even thrive in human-built environments: pigeons scrounge for scraps of food while hawks dive off of skyscrapers to hunt their prey. Learn all about the massive variety of birds, the ways that they differ in their survival strategies, which ones are fastest, which ones are largest, which ones are smallest, and which ones are smartest. A great book to have in the classroom or in the home, and an excellent way to introduce children to the world of birds.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
