Moonbird: A Year on the Wind with the Great Survivor B95 by Phillip Hoose

4.0

I really didn't think I would be into this book.... but a TINY BIRD has literally flown the distance from EARTH TO THE MOON over his very long (for a wild bird) life. B95 4EVA!!!!

Seriously, this is a book about birds... and conservation and the intricately intertwined web of nature. The red knot's population is declining, in part due to overfishing of its food supply. Reading the book is like reading a Discovery Channel nature show (and I mean that in the best way possible). Back matter includes *extensive* source notes, photo credits, an index, and a lot of great ways that kids and teens can get involved in doing something to help protect the red knot.

B95 4eva.
