Book Overview
This picture-book biography tells the story of the 19th-century artist and explorer John James Audubon. Most people know that he painted The Birds of America but many don't know what an exciting life he led: narrowly escaping an earthquake, meeting with native peoples and witnessing flocks of passenger pigeons that literally darkened the noon-day sky. Armed with paintbrushes and canvas, Audubon searched the wild for birds and animals, and he captured many of them on paper.

Audubon
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is a wonderful book for introducing young children to Audubon. It is filled with a collection of different stories of Audubons adventures. This book keeps the attention very well of young children. I always know if the book is a "hit" in our house because my children will act out in their free time what we read about. Not only has my six year old acted out the book, but he's also started carring around paper and pencils to draw birds like John Audubon. It is a great living book.
