A Place for Birds
by Melissa Stewart

This nonfiction book showcases twelve North American birds, including the Great Blue Heron, Eastern Bluebird, Northern Cardinal, Bald Eagle, Piping Plover, and the rare Kirtland’s Warbler. It contains information about how humans can negatively harm these birds with their actions, such as use of DDT and oil spills, but also provides solutions on how to help them, such as dimming lights at night. This book can inspire and encourage youth to make good environmental choices and teach others how they can help as well.
