Publisher's Note This is a book of baby birds for children. Author Seri Wissinger wanted to show the difference in appearance between the babies and the adult birds, as well as to present facts about the different "breeds" of birds--and they are different! The book is geared to inspiring young people to become interested in observing and preserving our native and transplanted birds. After reading this book, young people should know that these feathered creatures not only have different personalities but social and family lives and ties as well.
