Reviews
"Fifteen exquisite, scrupulously accurate watercolors of birds in their habitats are captioned by a deceptively simple text. . . An excellent concept book that takes its young audience seriously while skillfully providing the basics of an important subject." --Kirkus Reviews

★ "Exceptionally detailed and uniformly accurate. . . the Sills succeed admirably." --School Library Journal, Starred Review

"The full-color illustrations by wildlife artist John Sill are so lifelike that one almost expects the birds to fly off the pages. . . a wonderful visual introduction. . . " --Booklist
