Booklist - 03/01/2024 In her latest “What’s Inside a . . .” book, Ignotofsky explores amazing nests and the birds that construct them. With some resounding chirps, readers are treated to a montage of baby birds in an astonishing variety of nests in locations around the world. The lens then narrows to focus on the reason for all of those roosts: eggs! A whirlwind examination of courtship rituals and nest construction is followed by a detailed cross section of an egg and the subsequent growth stages of the charming chicks. There are also thorough breakdowns of basic anatomy, feathers, (hollow) bones, and general characteristics, including migration, preferred snacks, and even a poop analysis. A quick review, helpful recommendations, and a reminder to protect our planet round out the proceedings. Ignotofsky’s signature style works beautifully here, utilizing bold type, chatty text, and entertaining illustrations to keep interest while imparting a wealth of intriguing information. The impeccable combination of fun facts and eye-catching artwork will turn any reader into a fledgling fan of these incredible animals. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
