Review: Highly recommended. - The book is amazing. It begins with explaining the different types of birds - prey, forest and grassland birds, garden birds etc. it’s a wonderful book to introduce birds to kids. Birds are clubbed together - for instance flightless birds, and beautiful illustrations along with information about its habitat, food preferences, etc are shared. It’s not a detailed account of each type of bird - you are better off buying a picture book if that’s what you are looking for. My 4.5 year old loves this book. I did pick and chose the information I shared with him when I stared reading the book but that is primarily to not overwhelm him. A few reads later - we now read the book cover to cover :) Review: Interesting one - These big books are really good. They have small chunks of information that kids can easily understand and remember. Different kinds are included but little about them. After reading if kids are interested in any particular bird, we can try to get related book. Quality of these books are amazing and illustrations are so fancy. Me and my kid love these big books.
