Now would be an excellent time to read a book to your smallest kids, or have the young children who already know how to read, read it for themselves. This book has won a number of awards since it has been published. This is the story of a little baby Arctic Tern who, with the help of his parents, grows up learning how to take care of himself and fly. The cover shows a colorful artistic picture of what the baby Tern and one of his parents look like, but once you open the book you enter a full photo scrapbook of a small family of Terns who are living in Anchorage's coastal wildlife refuge. The story is cute, the photos are gorgeous. All in all, it is a nice story promoting the refuge area via a true story of what it is like for these beautiful migratory birds.
This is a wonderful book that intertwines a story with factual information about the Arctic Tern and its development during its first season of life. It very well could be used as a supplement to a science lesson for daycare and early Elementary age school children. As the story is told from the baby Tern’s point of view it helps the reader to feel like a child experiencing new things in life for the very first time.
