Awaken young children to the sounds birds make, and to their own unique voices.
In Birds Sing Their Words, two young children, guided by an adult, take a springtime walk through a city neighborhood, noticing how birds communicate. The sounds of fee-bee and per-chick-a-ree are all around them--alone, in chorus, or call-and-response style. The children learn that our own diverse voices parallel the many songs that birds sing.
Birds Sing Their Words:
This book is part of the Outside Our Window Board Books series, which encourages children--especially those in urban neighborhoods--to explore, protect, and delight in nature. Each book in the series focuses on one feature of the natural world (like birds), one sense (hearing), and one social or emotional learning skill (communication). The books emphasize community and encourage children and families to explore the natural world around them.
Working at the intersection of nature, literature, and culture, M?lina Mangal's writing highlights youth whose voices are rarely heard, and the people and places that inspire them to explore their world.
She is the author of short stories and biographies for youth, including The Vast Wonder of the World: Biologist Ernest Everett Just, winner of the Carter G. Woodson Book Award and named an NCSS/CBC Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People.
M?lina also works as a school library teacher in Minnesota and enjoys spending time outdoors with her family, whether it's in her backyard or hiking in the woods.
