Extreme Birds: The World's Most Extraordinary and Bizarre Birds

The cover of the book came creased right down the center but the book is so much fun that I don’t even mind ! Great info, great pictures, very interesting. Friends and family who walk by it are usually captured by the “dinosaur bird” cover (shoebill) and pick it up and flip through! Love it

I've always loved this book, and have checked it out from my local library numerous times. If you're a bird lover? You need this book... and if you're not already a bird lover, this book will turn you into one. The photography is stunning, and the facts about each creature are amusing, delightful, and unforgettable!My copy arrived in near-perfect condition! The seller listed it as "Good," but could quite honestly have classified it as "Like New" or, at least, "Very Good."Thank you for selling such excellent quality merchandise!I am very pleased, and highly likely to select Goodwill VSB for future orders.

Beautiful pictures and interesting information

This was a Christmas gift for my teenage bird loving son amd he loves it! Our whole family enjoys reading it! It has the most interesting facts about birds I never knew and amazing pictures. A few of the pictures and info on some birds are a bit morbid so not for a young child or anyone who gets upset at some of the more unsettling things in nature and more for teens and adults in my opinion. It is interesting though for everyone who likes to learn new things and not just bird lovers! Birds are way more interesting than I ever knew!

The photographs are wonderful.

Thanks for excellent service, good price, and accurate description of product.

The photography is very good, and the text, while somewhat skimpy, is nonetheless quite interesting, and often surprising. An enjoyable book.

This book is perfect both kids and adults. There is lots of information on a wide variety of interesting birds. The format of the book is perfect for kids. It is not necessary to sit down and read the whole book to enjoy it. Each page is devoted to one bird. So the book is easy to pick up and put down at any time. Ideal for kids with a short attention span. My 11 year old granddaughter loves it. I’m glad I purchased it.
