Birds are some of the most fascinating and diverse creatures on our planet. These creatures face many challenges such as habitat loss, climate change, and pollution, making conservation efforts crucial for their survival. This book will teach you about the ways we can protect birds and help them overcome these challenges. Despite the threats they face, birds play vital roles in maintaining the health of our planet, from spreading seeds to pollinating flowers.
Through engaging children, aged 10+, using the medium of children's nonfiction literature I intend to encourage children to learn not only about birds but the impact they have on the wider world. With the hope that this encourages future generations to advocate for the protection of bird species around the world.
