True Stories Celebrating the Intelligence and Beauty of Birds
· Callie Smith Grant's animal-themed story collections have sold over 350,000 copies
· 40 heartwarming true stories celebrating the intelligence and beauty of birds and their unique connection to humans
· Perfect for any time your spirit needs a lift--or a bird-lover needs a gift!
Whether we watch quick little songbirds at our backyard feeders, keep a flock of chickens, teach parrots to talk, or stand looking up at the sky, mesmerized by the aerial acrobatics of blackbirds gathering as the leaves turn in the fall, humans have an almost universal admiration of and interest in birds. We love the birdsong of spring, the fledglings in summer, the deep V of geese in autumn, the bright spot of red cardinals against white snow.
Wild or domestic, birds are clearly one of God's best gifts. This collection of forty heartwarming true stories of our fine feathered friends from animal-lover Callie Smith Grant celebrates that gift. With stories of brave budgie brothers, serene shore birds, hungry hummingbirds, a curious crow, an owl that came into a boy's life as an answer to prayer, and many more, Consider the Birds is the perfect companion to a cozy blanket, a cup of tea, and a chair by the window--where you can see the birds.
