Book overview
Join cousins Kamali and Josiah as they hear the beautiful songs from all the birds around the neighborhood!
In Birds Sing Their Words, two young children, guided by an adult, take a springtime walk through a city neighborhood, noticing how birds communicate. The sounds of fee-bee and per-chick-a-ree are all around them--alone, in chorus, or call-and-response style. The children learn that our own diverse voices parallel the many songs that birds sing.
Birds Sing Their Words:
- Celebrates Diversity: While highlighting children in diverse, urban environments, this engaging kids book celebrates all the different sounds birds make and how their voices are all unique--just like ours!
- Hatches Learning Moments: Simple text and vivid illustrations are used throughout the toddler book to show children how they can connect with nature in easy-to-understand way.
- Includes Helpful Tips for Parents & Caregivers: This children's book features additional guidance and engaging toddler activities to help children learn more about the birds in their own neighborhoods.
This book is part of the Outside Our Window Board Books series, which encourages children--especially those in urban neighborhoods--to explore, protect, and delight in nature. Each book in the series focuses on one feature of the natural world (like birds), one sense (hearing), and one social or emotional learning skill (communication). The books emphasize community and encourage children and families to explore the natural world around them.
