Gr 4–8—More than a compendium of bird species, Sibley's superior volume captures the essence of each bird,
delving into the particularity of each one. His exquisitely illustrated book offers incredible yet digestible details and
fascinating insights that will intrigue kids from urban to rural communities.

I put this on the wish list list from whence it was plucked (thank, kids!) mostly in the spirit of just adding to my collection of tree field guides. However, its front materials are excellent and included information I had not picked up in several years of reading tree-related books. The main body is well organized, well illustrated, and well written. And there's even a handy "tree watchers" checklist in the back, to track the trees you see in the real world. So I have a strong feeling this will not just be sitting on my shelf looking pretty, but will see active use in the years to come.… (plus d'informations)
