Baby's First Book of Birds Colors [Board book]

Baby’s first birding board book! A pleasing introduction to birds in their natural habitats that includes corresponding colors with flowers, fruits, or foliage.

With charming illustrations and minimal text, each spread presents two birds of the same color against a backdrop of matching flowers, fruits, or foliage. From the eastern bluebird and blue jay to the scarlet tanager and northern cardinal, the birds and their habitats have been carefully researched for accuracy.

The color words appear large and bold, and each bird is labeled by name. An ideal book for your little one to start identifying birds out your window, and beyond.Tildes (Baby Animals Take a Bath) pairs nine colors (if one counts black and white) with birds that show off each hue. The birds are labeled by name and sex, and they perch in and around foliage that helps make the pages explode with color: an eastern bluebird sits on a birdhouse entwined with morning glories, a thrush and wren scavenge for food on a forest floor dotted with brown leaves and mushrooms, and a downy woodpecker does its thing on a birch's flaky white bark. As she often does, Tildes concludes the book with a spread featuring human children, though it feels overly posed and visually jarring beside the preceding pages.

The name of each color is printed in large font, while the name of each bird is in a much smaller one. Whether the bird shown is male or female, or if the male and female have similar coloring, is also indl3-
