Another in the popular Animal Helpers series of books, this volume looks at birds of prey and the people who step up to assist them when they are injured, sick or abandoned while they are still chicks. Collaborating with various raptor centers - from North Carolina, Kentucky and Minnesota to California - the author shows how the birds are cared for and then released back into the wild.

Actual color photos are used to illustrate the text. You'll also discover four pages of learning activities which will make this book a good resource for teachers and parents home schooling their children. Every school library should have a copy of this handy book which will appeal to youngsters in the first to third grades.
