Book Guide

In her first two Science I CAN READ Books Millicent E. Selsam explored the wonders of plants and fish life.  Now Tony's Birds opens a new area to the young naturalist.  

With his father's field glasses and the family bird guide, Tony is ready for a boy's eye view of birds.  But birdwatching is not a simple thing.  You must learn to be quiet, and you must know where and how to look.  Tony learned those things—and many more—to his great satisfaction.

Especially planned for the beginning reader to read with a minimum of adult help, Tony's Birds is a book that will remain with the child forever, increasing his knowledge and joy in the outdoor world and opening new facets in his awareness.
