We purchased this book for my son and I to identify the birds in our backyard. It has just a few of the most popular birds in each area. While it is laid out nicely and has great pictures there are several birds in our backyard that are not in there so we had to buy another book. Great book if you are looking just for an overview of the most common birds.
The whole family enjoys looking at this book. We care for people with developmental disabilities and they just love the book. It is easy to read and gives basic facts about birds and wonderful picture. I highly recommend this book for children, people with disabilities and old timers like me who like to keep it basic.
Finally a book that purports to be pocket sized and it really small enough to fit into a jacket pocket. Bought it for my daughter who is a bird enthusiast.... she has read it from end to end and is starting to identify birds in our backyard and talk facts about them.
This book is colorful, clear, well illustrated. Explanations are interesting and to the point. The format is appealing to young readers.
Kids & adults will love this beautifully illustrated and informative reference book. Complete with a picture index as well as regional & name index. I bought this for my granddaughter along with a set of binoculars so we could watch the birds while we have tea.
This guide is specifically for kids learning about birds and bird watching. It is definitely on par of any National Geographic magazine. Great colors and layout create an interest in watching and learning about common birds. The organization of the book is based on the general habitat of birds including such interesting areas like parks, fields and etc. Whether the book reader is in the country or city it provides the common locations birds would habitat. It is a very good first guide for a young child wanting to learn more about common birds in the area. I enjoyed paging through the book to see if a young person would enjoy reading it. I can not say there is anything that would not capture a young persons interest.I highly recommend it for any child having a interest in birds.
Everyone who opens this has loved this book. It was bought for a bird loving youth in the family and got passed around during the holidays with much success. It has a clear color pictures, a great table of contents and birds are divided by habitats. There are a few unconventional categories such as "Rock Star Birds", but it is descriptive in the habitat, as in birds that are located in rocky areas.After the sections of habitat there are additional 'fun' pages like:How to build a bird feeder, How to make a bird bath, How to build a bird nest, How to draw a bird, 6 things you can do to help birds. There is also an informative index.Overall, it is much more entertaining than your standard identification guide. Is it missing a lot of birds? Of course! It only actually identifies 62 birds, 6 birds for 10 categories of habitat and 2 birds for 1 of the categories. But, it's not marketed as a field guide, more like a 'spotlight' on birds book.
I was looking for a comprehensive bird guide for my four year old daughter and me to read together. I generally trust National Geographic and this book did not disappoint! It has the more common birds you would find in different ecosystems of North America. The pictures are bright and clear and there are lots of fun facts and information about each. I love the maps showing the distribution of each species, which is great for a visual learner like myself. I am learning alot from this book along with my daughter. I have a feeling we'll be using this book for years to come whenever we want to identify a bird.
