About this title

Synopsis

Part read along, part coffee table field guide, this bird alphabet book by author and illustrator Jessalyn Claire Beasley is more than a way to learn the alphabet. It invites little birders to enter the world of observing nature though birds, art, and easy to digest facts.

Little Birder introduces twenty-six birds, one for each of letter of the alphabet, with bold illustrations and playful descriptions that capture the essence of each bird. Layered in the pages are various opportunities to observe, learn, and question--making this a nature book with a shelf-life that is as long as a child’s early years.

A book to browse with babies or a book to read aloud from cover to cover, this field guide for little birders, complete with delightful descriptions and bird sounds, relative size guide, bold and gorgeous illustrations, and even a birdwatcher’s journal and instructions for Learning to Draw Birds, makes birdwatching together and learning fun and exciting at home, in the classroom, or in the field!

Are you ready to encourage the young nature lover and artist that is already in your child, waiting to be discovered?
