Leído por LibriVox Volunteers
The Children's Book of Birds combines under a single cover the First and Second Books of Birds, originally published in 1899 and 1901 respectively. The book is intended to interest young people in the ways and habits of birds and to stimulate them to further study and to provide some account of the life and habits, to arouse sympathy and interest in the living bird, neither as a target nor as a producer of eggs, but as a fellow-creature whose acquaintance it would be pleasant to make. - Summary from Preface (7 hr 52 min)
