Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Did you have any idea how important bird feet are? In this book, kids will discover many of the different traits and characteristics of various birds and their feet!
Become a bird watching detective, discovering clues about where a bird lives, how it moves, and what it eats by looking at its feet. Laurie Angus' bright, bold illustrations and simple text invite children to guess what birds will be revealed on successive pages. They include a bird with strong legs and feet running across the desert to snag a lizard for lunch (roadrunner); a bird with flexible toes perching on a branch to pick berries (cardinal); and a bird with long legs and toes wading through a river to search for fish (heron). But look out! Predators are watching the birds, and they are hungry!
"Introduces children to various types of bird feet. Each type is perfectly adapted to help a bird find food and escape predators in different habitats including: pond, river, desert, forest, and meadow."-- Provided by publisher.
