    We are looking for living books on birds for about the age range of upper elelmentary to jr. high school level.  Any suggestions here?

    The Burgess Bird Book for Children came to mind.  We have enjoyed several of his books including this one!  Hope this helps.Smile

    Thank you for bringing this up! I was searching for this very topic this afternoon. There was a link to a page of resources to accompany The Burgess Book for Children:
