    Birds and Names

    This guide, limited in all the information that is 'really' out there about birds of North America is really a great little book. It is a great source to start for general bird informtion.
    My husband and four-year old son have really enjoyed looking at it and talking about what they see on every page. My four-year old soaks everything up and understands that there are some birds in that book we will never see in our backyard, so he is ready for an adventure. He is a budding scientist of some kind we just know it!
