Birds in Your Backyard

(4) K-3 Sharing Nature with Children series. As an encouraging introduction to bird watching, this book suggests practical ways to attract backyard birds, such as setting out simple birdbaths and food. More information and resources appear in the back matter, including an ambitious plan for building a nest box. Illustrations from different perspectives are accurate, but a stippled background interferes with easy identification, especially in the smaller representations.
