About this title

Synopsis

A very first guide to birds for children aged 3 to 7, this title presents 56 of the most striking and commonly seen southern African species. After a brief introduction that explains how the title works and provides simple guidelines for watching birds, each new page introduces a new bird. Most of the information supplied is visual, in the form of a full colour illustration of the bird and line drawings of food eaten, typical nest and the bird's track. A visual guide to the bird's size is given at the base of the page. The brief text (provided in four languages) highlights interesting or notable facts about the bird.

About the Author

Erroll Cuthbert (1938-2019), an insurance broker by profession, was an enthusiastic amateur birder who conceived of this concept in an effort to reach the youngest children who show an interest in birds and nature. He was based in Irene, Pretoria.
