Created in partnership with the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, this boldly illustrated board book introduces the very young to some of the brightly coloured birds in our gardens, parks and countryside. The text is short, of course, but thoroughly engaging and packs in a great deal of information. Special flaps, a good size for little hands, extend each page revealing more about the different birds featured, or answering questions such as, ‘who is flashing their pink and blue feathers?’ There are animals as well as the birds to spot on every page and this will be a lovely book to share with little children.

Who is that with the long tail? What is making that sound? Who is diving in the pond? Lift the flaps to see what the birds are doing. Some like to play tag, others hide acorns and another builds nests in the strangest of places. With colourful illustrations and simple and interactive text, this is the perfect introduction to birds for little ones.
