- Summary
- About Woodpeckers is a thoughtful and entertaining first glimpse into the world of nature for young children. In this informative book from the About...series, author and former teacher Cathryn Sill explains in simple, easy-to-understand language what woodpeckers are, how and where they live, and what they do. With the help of beautifully detailed paintings by noted wildlife illustrator John Sill, the author describes the basic characteristics that all woodpeckers share, while offering a closer look at a number of these distinctive birds - from the Yellow-fronted Woodpeckers that live in South American rainforests to the majestic Pileated Woodpeckers of North American forests. An afterword and a glossary provide further detail that will inspire young readers to learn more about this diverse group of birds. -- From dust jacket.
