Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
★ "An impressive use of rhythm, rhyme, onomatopoeia, and word imagery endows this science-based book with a strong literary component . . . Recommended as a lyrical read-aloud and an informational text." - School Library Journal
In this lyrical STEM gem, nests full of baby birds hatch, grow feathers, learn to fly, and then finally follow the autumn winds south along the majestic flyway for their first big migration. Rhyming, poetic text and detailed, nostalgic illustrations make for an enthralling read-aloud, carrying readers along on the birds' sensory journey of sights and sounds. Illustrated endnotes provide factual information about bird migration, the four flyways of North America, the species of birds found in the book and sources for further reading.
In this lyrical STEM gem, follow 12 bird species as their babies begin their first migration down the majestic flyway.
An educational picture book in which lyrical text and impressionistic-style illustrations follow the life cycles of twelve migrating birds, representing the species who use the Mississippi flyway route. Back matter includes additional facts about flyways, migration, and each of the featured birds.
Includes bibliographical references.
