Birds are among the greatest wonders of God's creation. Anywhere we go, we can find birds. They have been seen crossing the ocean and flying over the highest mountains. There are thousands of different species. Why, we wonder, did God create such a world of birds? This book gives us at least three good reasons.
Birds are beautiful. One look at the Roseate Spoonbill on the back cover leaves no doubt. What a show! This and the many other stunning photographs in this book are truly a feast for the eyes.
Birds are fascinating. What bird can fly upside down? Which one can eat its weight in worms each day? How can birds keep track of each other as they migrate through the night sky?
Birds are inspiring. We can learn much from them. In a character-building section for each species, the author explains, especially for younger readers, the many lessons he has learned from birds.
This book will bring a new appreciation for the birds around us—and will draw us closer to the One who created such beauty and variety.
