The Little Book of Woodland Bird Songs

Review My grandkids all loved The Little Book of Backyard Bird Songs so much that I ordered The Little Book of Woodland Bird Songs. This has been even more popular with them! -- Deb Chitwood - Living Montessori Now Published On: 2019-03-23 "What sets The Little Book of Woodland Bird Songs apart from other beginning bird identification books is the last word in its title. The authors recognize that we often hear birds before we see them, and so the book links the auditory with the visual. Bound with this sturdy board book and encased in durable plastic is a sound module having 12 song buttons, one for each of the book's birds. Pressing the button bearing the portrait of the bird being read about activates the common sound that particular bird makes. The one-inch (3-cm) speaker actually provides excellent sound quality (and a battery is included). The Little Book of Woodland Bird Songs is an excellent home purchase, but it should certainly also be considered by libraries and classrooms that are willing to accept some wildlife sounds. Highly Recommended" -- Dave Jenkinson - CM: Canadian Review of Materials Published On: 2019-02-01 I have used this book with babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. The babies perk up when they hear the sounds, and the toddlers and preschoolers love matching the illustration to the button to hear the sounds. This book is guaranteed to be a hit with families of bird watchers, or for those wanting to teach their children about birds. Pair this book with The Little Book of Backyard Bird Songs for more information about identifying bird sounds. - Resource Links Published On: 2019-04-01 These sounds are peaceful and pleasant. They are interesting and beautiful. Each bird has it's own page with facts about it and a very detailed illustration of what it looks like. These are great for toting along in the car or for finding kids "reading" by themselves. -- Michelle - The Book Report Blog Published On: 2019-05-21 I LOVE birds! Which is why I did a little happy dance when these books from Firefly Books arrived in the mail recently. I suppose that technically these are children's books (the suggested age range is 5-9), but these are truly perfect for adults like me. Gorgeous lifelike illustrations, sturdy pages, simple and interesting facts plus the buttons to push and hear actual birdsong -- I adore these field guides. -- Becky Porter - Becky's Bookshelf Published On: 2019-03-21 If, like me, there are kids in your orbit, there are some lovely new books that might inspire a love of birds and nature. The Little Book of Woodland Bird Songs by Andrea Pinnington and Caz Buckingham is engaging. In a board book format, it uses buttons and a little speaker to integrate birdsong with a dozen bird profiles. -- Paul Nicholson - London Free Press Published On: 2018-12-07 (review of UK edition) Take a well-put-together board book (don't worry about it being a board book - no one is going to say that they're a bit too old for a board book once they see it), add exquisite pictures of a dozen birds - one on each double-page spread - and then fill in the details... The pictures are beautiful... The details are clear... To the right of the pages is a panel with pictures of all the birds in the book and when you press the picture you hear the bird's song and the quality is really excellent... It just goes to prove that you are never too old for a board book - or a sound book for that matter. -- Sue Magee - Bookbag Published On: 2016-02-01 Product Description Hear the songs and learn about 12 of North America's woodland birds. Being able to identify a bird's song is a skill that brings joy and fosters an appreciation of nature. Some bird songs are distinctive and easily recognized, like the common loon and wild turkey. Hawks as a group are distinctive but the individual species vary, as do the owls. Picking up the songs of a Black-capped Chickadee and a White-breasted Nuthatch, however, is not easy. That is where this encha
