The Burgess Bird Book for Children (Yesterday's Classics)
by Thornton W. Burgess Author
(From Amazon): Through the eyes of Peter Rabbit we become acquainted with a variety of birds as they return to Peter's neighborhood in the spring.

We meet Jenny Wren, Scrapper the King-bird, Redwing the Blackbird, and dozens more. An engaging introduction to birds for young children.
