I really enjoyed reading the informational book “Birds” for a few different reasons. The book was very well organized and one of the first few pages was the table of contents. The authors did a good job organizing the information by category, including what a bird is, their flying styles, their bodies (legs and feet), mating, different types of birds, etc. The second thing I really enjoyed about this book was how engaging it was. For example, sentences like “flying machines” and “animal partnerships” were used to add a bit of humor to an informational text. The third reason I enjoyed this book was because of the different textiles that were included. On almost every page there is one (or more) pictures that goes along with show more the text. Along with the different information presented on each page, there is a fun fact at the bottom. This book presented a lot of useful information, especially if you’re interested in birds, and did a good job at adding color and grabbing the attention of the reader. show less
This is a great example of an informational text, because it is packed with amazing facts about birds and illustrated with photos and drawn illustrations.
