While primarily for children this book interests other bird-lovers as well. “Nearly a hundred species are described and talked about in an informal, interesting way, technicalities being avoided as much as possible, perhaps too much for convenience of identification.” (Ind.)
“A very good book for children, or to use with children, for supplementary work. Does not supplant Chapman’s ‘Birdlife’ as an identification book, and one might hesitate to choose it in preference to Olive Thorne Miller’s two books for teaching purposes, but is superior for reading.”
