Learning About Birds (Dover Little Activity Books)

Youngsters and bird lovers of all ages will enjoy this hands-on activity book. Included are 12 full-color stickers on two plates depicting a flock of familiar birds: red-winged blackbird, Eastern bluebird, house sparrow, scarlet tanager, blue jay, American robin, American goldfinch, white-breasted nuthatch, tufted titmouse, Northern cardinal, downy woodpecker, and Northern oriole.
On each page of the book, readers will find a concise, easy-to-read description (color, size, habitat, and other information) of one of the birds, along with a space for a sticker. As children learn about each bird they place the appropriate sticker in the space provided. It's a great way to have fun while absorbing a wealth of information about the birds around us.

In addition to illustrating books for Dover, Ruth Soffer has also done work for other major publishing houses. An artist specializing in natural science subjects, she lives in Brooklyn, New York.
