Birdwatchers by James Simon
Jess and Grandad return in this delightful follow-up to the popular The Wild Woods. "When I go birdwatching, things happen," Grandad says. Sometimes, he says, the birds draw him while he's drawing them. Sometimes, he says, the birds help him find their names in his bird book. "Birds are amazing," says Grandad. But Jess isn't sure. So one day she goes birdwatching with Grandad to see for herself! - Simon James's many bestselling titles include Dear Greenpeace and Leon and Bob, a Smarties Book Prize Silver Medal Winner. - Simon James's books often contain a message about respecting and caring for our natural world, and this is no exception. - Whimsical, witty and poignant, this is a wonderful follow-up to The Wild Woods.
