Description:

Thoughtful, philosophical, and delightful, Crazy for Birds pairs beautiful artwork with whimsical writing to explore the many wonders of birds, shedding light on our abiding connection with nature, the diversity of life, and the idiosyncrasy of the human psyche.

A charming and quirky illustrated exploration of birds and the reasons we love them.

From the Common Swift, which can stay in the air continuously without landing for up to ten months at a time, even sleeping on the wing, to the tiny Goldcrest, Europe's smallest bird, which can lay one-and-one-half times its body weight in eggs every season, birds are incredible creatures.

With fascinating facts, humorous anecdotes and charming illustrations, artist Misha Blaise pays loving homage to the amazing birds that populate our skies in a delightful gift book sure to enchant birders, art-lovers, children and adults alike.
