Baby's First Book of Birds & Colors

My 12 month old and I love this book! The illustrations are beautiful. I like that the book is simple but also engaging. My little guy loves birds so any bird to point at is a win. But we’re also introducing color and bird identification. It’s great. We read it multiple times a day.

Beaytiful book!

My grandson and I love this book. As a birder, I appreciate the accurate drawings, the choice of birds and the correct environments depicted. As a teacher, I love the lesson on color. As a consumer, I love the quality of the book. My grandson just loves the bright, cheerful colors and sharing his nana’s love of birds! I’ll look for more birds by this author/illustrator.

Gorgeously illustrated and informative book, vibrant, realistic, and detailed, that both of my kids have enjoyed and learned from. It grows with the child by facilitating the learning of colors as well as some basic ornithology and even a little bit of botany. Both my kids have also been fascinated by the final "surprise" illustration of the little children, a contrast in subject and scale with the bird drawings but equally beautiful. This should be considered a classic picture board book and be included in every new baby's library!

Highly recommend for all. Beautiful illustrations and I appreciate that the bird and place species names are also provided in case parents want to look them up. My child loves this book.

I love reading this colorful and fun book with my grand kids.

I’m a casual birder and I love that this book uses realistic illustrations of common backyard birds—I attribute my two-year-old’s identification of blue jays and cardinals to its simple language and illustrations. Also the illustrations include plants in the same color, so that’s just, like, bonus nature learning! She likes to read it a lot, so it’s good that it’s also interesting for me as an adult! Also I feel all kinds of Montessori smugness about how she’s reading something so connected with the real world around her. My one complaint, though, is that after going through all the colors like blue and red and yellow, the last page of birds is “black and white.” It’s true that there are beautiful black and white birds like the downy woodpecker, but combining the two made it harder for her to know what is black and what is white. Wish the author had just done “black” with a grackle or crow (maybe on parking lot asphalt!) and then “white” with a swan or something in the snow. There was even space because the last page is an illustration of children putting together a puzzle with the birds from the previous pages. It does conclude the story, but I’d much rather have black and white clarified in two pages instead of one.

My grandson absolutely adores this book as do I. The colors and different varieties of the birds is amazing. It's laid out in such a way that it keeps the child's interest in learning about the different types of birds, and all of the different colors. I highly recommend this book, it's definitely the best book I've seen about birds and colors.

Really colourful book! Hadn’t realised it was American (should have realised by there not being a u in colour) but it is still a great book! Just probably not lots of birds that my daughter would see.

The seller was really nice and helpful, the order was taking more time than supposed and the seller was very professional in getting in touch with me. My baby absolutely loves this book. A must have in your montessorian library.

Lovely little book! My 10 month old grandson loves it!

Great picture book for toddlers to help them "see" beautiful birds in their neighborhood and relate to what they are seeing.

I love birth watching, I wanted to introduce birds to my son when he was about 12 months old. He quickly started learning the colors and a few of the names. 14 months later he knows all the names and can even spot them out in the nature
