And while the text is aimed at adultsâincluding fascinating new scientific research on the myriad ways birds have adapted to environmental changesâit is nontechnical, making it the perfect occasion for parents and grandparents to share their love of birds with young children, who will delight in the big, full-color illustrations of birds in action.
