The Bird Book
19.31
Caldecott Honor–winning team Steve Jenkins and Robin Page celebrate the astonishing diversity of bird species in this magnificently illustrated picture book.
They can dance, sing, and, of course, fly—what’s not to love about birds?
With more than 10,000 species of dramatically different colors, shapes, and sizes, birds are some of the most fascinating creatures on the planet. The only animal with feathers, birds have soared through the skies for millions of years. Learn what makes a bird a bird, what birds like to eat, and how these masters of the air have evolved. Ever wonder which bird is the smallest? Or the fastest? Which can fly the highest? Or stay airborne longest? You’ll find answers to these questions and countless others in The Bird Book. Whether in the water, on land, or flying high above, Jenkins and Page present a stunning array of these amazing aviators and the extraordinary ways they survive this world.
Table with information about birds featured in the book. Suggested resources for further information. Full-color illustrations were created using torn- and cut-paper collage.
