5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Addition to Our Birding Adventures

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } We started birding this year, just casually listening and spotting birds in the neighborhood—but An Anthology of Exquisite Birds took it to a whole new level. I read it with my daughter every night before bed. We’d pick a new bird, read the entry, then look it up on YouTube to see and hear it in real life. Incredible fun, and such a lovely way to wind down the day while learning something new together. It’s become a favorite part of our routine!

My son has been obsessive with birds, he asked me to get him a book and I found this. He has read so many times, and my daughters are now taking over they keep looking at it and flipping the pages. It's very educational for young kids. It's a great addition to their library

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful addition to the series

A.K. · September 18, 2024

I’ve gotten my nature-loving 9-year-old almost every single book in this DK anthology series (oddly, she doesn’t like dinosaurs) and as we have pet birds at home and love flying creatures in general, this was a no-brainer. She’s thrilled she got it the day it arrived and I’ve only had the brief chance to look at it but as someone fairly well-up on exotic birds in general and parrots in specific the information I saw is accurate and informative (the pages devoted to the African Grey parrot mention Dr. Irene Pepperberg and Alex, for example). I’m also a teacher so my standards for children’s books are high and as usual DK is excellent, but the illustrations in here really do elevate the book tremendously. If you have a middle elementary student who loves the natural world, or even if you’re just a bird-nerd adult who wants a moderately-priced coffee-table book, give this a shot.

Lovely book but cover looks old

Great assortment of birds with wonderfully colorful pictures. Unfortunately the cover of the book looked worn and aged. Had bought for Christmas so didn't have time to return it.

Judge the Book by it's Cover

These books are so beautiful. The narrative is clear and easy for children to attempt but the pictures are what make it - absolutely stunning.
