This is a wonderful and informative book about birds for children, but as an adult I enjoyed it too. The illustrations are beautiful, and the information about each bird is interesting and informative.
I received an ARC from NetGalley. The book will be released on October 1, 2019.

The Atlas of Amazing Birds is exactly that. An atlas about beautiful birds from all over the globe. While this has been done before I really like the simple layout of the information on each bird and the illustrations. They are beautifully drawn and coloured. I feel this is a fresh take on an old idea.

I received an arc of this book on netgalley in exchange for a honest review.
I loved the illustrations in this book! I wasn't expecting anything special, but the illustrations are 100% the best part of this book, I wish I could learn how to draw them, too! They are kind of simplistic, but that's what makes them better.

This book made me want to take up bird-watching; it is that well-written that you just want to see and hear the birds in the wild for yourself.

A good atlas of birds. It's easy to go through, well organize and simple. But! Those documentary/atlas book that use illustrations instead of picture are always a big disappointment to me (I get the guy is an illustrator not a photographer) but maybe write fiction then, an atlas should have real picture (except for dinosaur because we can photograph them obviously...).
