Birds of the World

In January, the focus at the JCL-Arnold Branch was Birds.  It was the focus of much of our programming.  So, this week, I am sharing some great nonfiction, informational books about birds.

What It's Like to Be a Bird by David Allen Sibley
This book shows how birds and humans are intrinsically connected, sometimes helping and sometimes hindering each other. Adapted for young readers from the bestselling work written and illustrated by David Allen Sibley, this unique book is perfect for dedicated bird-watchers--or for anyone who simply delights in noticing birds in their neighborhood.

A Bird Is a Bird by Lizzy Rockwell
Describes the unique features that birds have, including beaks, wings, and feathers, and how they are used by different varieties of birds.

Winter Moon by Jean Craighead George
A song sparrow, a mole, a bear, and an owl must struggle through the cold, harsh months of winter.
