Learning With Puzzles

Very often those who embrace the hobby of bird watching become more and more interested in the health of the planet in general, as well as the well-being of it’s many inhabitants, winged and otherwise. This is why it is essential that young people are exposed to these fascinating creatures at an early age.

This little book is cleverly designed to do just that. Instead of writing a boring Beginner’s Guide which many children would avoid the author Patrick Merrell has interspersed word games, poems, cartoons, puzzles and quizzes with not only interesting trivia (such as “an Ostrich’s eye is the size of a tennis ball) but also facts that I believe are carefully designed to stimulate a child’s interest in and then hopefully caring for the fascinating world of these beautiful and complicated creatures.
