Alaska Is for the Birds!: Fourteen Favorite Feathered Friends

Fourteen birds found in Alaska are introduced in rhyming verse. The subjects include the tufted puffin and willow ptarmigan, alongside twelve other feathered residents of the state. Poems about each bird are paired with bold, colorful linocut illustrations. A glossary and additional information in the back matter extend the book’s look at these Alaskan birds. The result is a portrait of local wildlife told through short verse and print-based artwork.
