Great adaptation from the adult version! If you have a student who likes birds, I’m sure they will like this one.
I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. Beautiful artwork done by Sibley with easy to understand information about books. Lovely book
I really enjoyed this book. It was packed full of facts and I feel like I learned a lot about birds by reading it! The illustrations were beautiful as well. This makes both a useful guidebook and a great book to flip around in to learn some facts. Birders of all ages and experience levels will likely enjoy this book.
My kids and I read through this entire book together over several months. We learned so much about birds, which we’ve put to good use on our camping trip. We’ve even come to see Grackles in a new light. This is a great book for budding naturalists. The illustrations are just beautiful!
Thank you NetGalley and Random House Children’s for the opportunity to review this book.

Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
First of all, kids love learning about animals and birds so this will be a great book for our library. Illustrations are nice. Trigger- for Christian parents there is a mention of evolution. Could be sticky.
Otherwise, great book.
4 stars
A good guide for birds. Contains information on behavioral patterns, feathers, and other interesting things not always included. Beautifully illustrated.
Christians be aware that it does contain evolutionary content.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a chance to preview this book.
Lots of great information about different types of birds. Also, this book has beautiful illustrations. Anyone interested in birds would benefit from this book.
