Review by Horn Book Review

Heavy cardstock pages suit the young audience targeted by this introduction to birds. Subtopics such as beaks, feet, and feathers are presented in colorful double-spreads, with one main photo and several smaller ones, all captioned. Coverage is worldwide, though that's made clear only in the downloadable digital companion. Facts (e.g., a bird's hollow bones) are accurate and interesting, if sometimes partial. Glos., ind.
