Here is the answer to our Quick Quiz from Sunday!
The excerpt is from Fine Feathered Friends – All About Birds by Tish Rabe from the Cat In the Hat’s Learning Library. (44 pages)
This is a great example of true bird knowledge written in a fun format. (The only exception to truth comes at the very end of the book. The children receive a pet store bird called a Ruzzamatuzz.) The book includes facts about flycatchers and Whooping Cranes, spoonbills and Bald Eagles and many more! I would recommend this book to any young child.
So I will leave you with my favorite part:
Some birds that you see
love to glide through the sky,
while other birds stay on the ground
and can’t fly.Take the New Zealand Kiwi
(whose name rhymes with peewee)-
both he-wi and she-wi
will never take flight.And these shy little birds
like to stay out of sight
and search for their food
in the dark of the night.
