Geraldo Valerio is an artist who loves birds, from majestic golden eagles and snowy owls to brilliant red crossbills and puffins to the tiniest of hummingbirds.

The concise, accessible text provides information ranging from clever techniques for finding food to remarkable physical features to fascinating behaviors. But above all, Geraldo Valerio shares his passion for birds in this lovingly created album, inspiring young readers with their beauty and the excitement of discovery.
