Review

This is an introduction for K-3 that has an appealing format with age appropriate information, good photographs and illustrations that are labeled. I would have liked the definitions to be more complete, example, Endangered - a risk of dying out; could be expanded for young children to know it does not refer to one bird, but all, and there will never be another one. Included is section Helping Endangered Birds; What You Can Do; A Remarkable Recovery, the story of the bald eagle. Includes glossary, Further reading and Index.

Overall Book Score: good
