How Do Birds Find Their Way?


This illustrated children's book provides informative anecdotes about how birds migrate over incredible distances.

"Read and find out about birds and how they navigate in this colorfully illustrated nonfiction picture book. Birds don't need maps! Many birds make long journeys twice each year as they migrate between their winter and summer homes. Arctic terns fly more than 10,000 miles from the South Pole to northern Maine. Tiny little hummingbirds fly nonstop over the ocean for 500 miles. How do they know which way to fly? Why don't they get lost? Read and find out the many ideas scientists have come up with to explain this mystery." -From Publisher
