With simple rhymes and stunning illustrations this book is a beautiful beginning to a bird loving journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n \r\n\u003cp\u003eThis square book is perfectly suited to small hands. Each double page spread presents a native Australian bird. On one side is a (mostly) rhyming couplet that pinpoints one unique feature, and on the other page, an accurate depiction of the bird. The currawong has yellow eyes, the finch a triangle beak, and so on. It is a simple, yet highly effective way to allow very young readers to begin their bird spotting journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n \r\n\u003cp\u003eThe illustrations created using traditional printmaking techniques and watercolour paint, beautifully represent the colours and essence of each bird.
