My daughter loves this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Don't be dismayed by the few words - each caption carries a complete idea that will spark more questions and thinking, especially as it relates to the beautiful picture. The additional information in the back extends each idea, with challenging vocabulary and will encourage comparative thinking. It may seem simple to an adult, but it's spot on for a young child who is interested in birds. A really fine book for children. Highly satisfying for beginning readers.
Excellent!!!!

Fantastic book for toddlers to introduce birds. We have several of the Audubon plush birds that play the real bird calls, and our daughter loves to read this book with "her" birds. The whole series of books is excellent; highly recommend amphibians, reptiles, mammals, etc.
My son reads it every night!

I looked around a lot for a bird book for my son/his dad who love to watch the birds together. I purchased this after reading another review so I felt that I should give my own. Considering how difficult this book was to find, it was definetly worth the wait. My son is 21 months and just loves reading the "Birdee Book". The pictures are beautiful and the written text is short and sweet which is perfect for young children. I also feel that it is doing a great job of teaching him the difference between birds in the sense that there are ducks, geese, birds, etc.. and prior to this book all of them were just "Birds". I would recommend this for any child above 18 months.
A great first book about birds

This is such a pretty simple book. The pictures are lovely and the writing is perfect for the youngest children. This book is best for kids between 3 and 6 years old.

I bought this book for my granddaughters. They have loved it from the 2 yr. old to the 8 year old. I enjoyed it,too. The sounds brought memories of birds I'm familiar with.
