Book Reviews of 100 Birds and How They Got Their Names

Book Review: This book was a gift for my 12 yr old son
Summary: 4 Stars

We saw this book somewhere else and were very excited to find it on Amazon. My son & I have have really enjoyed this book so far. It was a gift for Christmas, but we have found the stories on the birds to be very interesting so far. Being bird wathcers, we have wondered how some birds get their names. This book is pretty cool and I think good for a variety of ages.
