A Most Remarkable Creature by Jonathan Meiburg 

This engaging book introduces us to the fascinating birds called caracaras: birds of prey that don't act like our aloof majestic eagles and hawks. Caracaras are more like crows or parrots. They love to hang out with their friends and are very intelligent, they eat anything and love to steal things that attract their attention. Along with their stories, we also learn about William Henry Hudson, a now nearly forgotten naturalist who championed birds in England and the world. Excellent natural history book. ~ Mary R.


Flanders talks about learning to appreciate what you have, chase after what you want, and being content with the life you lead. What others want has nothing to do with you should do. Be you, and learn to love it. She travels, talks about sacrifices, and learns along the way. Not as enjoyable as her first book, but still worth the time. ~ Cameron L.




Budgies: A guide to caring for your parakeet by Angela Davids

A very in depth step by step guide book with color photos of some beautiful birds. The best description of breeding for color I have found. All info I have read is up to date and accurate. Fun read! ~ Elaine C.






I always thoroughly enjoy Sherrilyn Kenyon's books and this one doesn't disappoint. The third Book in the Deadman's Cross series follows Valynda and Nibo's story and the many characters that live in Kenyon's World. From high seas to hidden lands and Hell itself, there in no place you can't go in a Kenyon book. ~ Paula A.
