Review

Large, detailed,beautifully rendered illustrations for our younger bird enthusiasts,make this a perfect picture,science book for introducing how, where, and why birds choose to make their nests.The text is simple and sparse. It lets the illustrations convey the message of why various species of birds make their nests where they do and how resourceful they are. Pair this with any number of bird books: Woodpecker Wham by Sayre, Mama Built a Little Nest by Ward, Birds by Henkes and Nest by Hurley.

Overall Book Score: excellent
