Birds

Learning about birds is something many children enjoy doing. Unlike polar bears, lions, and elephants, children can see birds without having to go to a zoo. They can set up a feeder outside their bedroom window, or put up a nesting box for birds in their garden. Here are some reviews of books that are about birds of all kinds. If you are interested in this topic you might also enjoy the John James Audobon Feature and the Penguins Feature.
