Horn Book Review

Starting with an overview and going on to exemplify types of birds (birds of prey, sea birds) through specific species, this beginner text with numerous, short-captioned color photos and a clean, open design is pitched just right for its audience. Bold-faced scientific terms, labeled body parts, and numbered charts of bird life cycles enhance the presentation. Glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010.
