Eli ★★★★★

I bought this as a birthday gift and ended up reading the whole thing myself first. The illustrations are genuinely funny, and the little fun facts about each bird kept me turning pages way past my bedtime.

Leo B. ★★★★★

My sister and I spent a whole dinner reading the fun facts out loud and crying laughing at some of these names. The illustrations are genuinely charming, which makes the insulting names even funnier. 160 pages went by way too fast.

Nicholas ★★★★★

I bought this purely for the title and ended up actually learning things. The fun facts on each of the 75 birds are short enough to read a few before bed, and I've already texted three of them to friends. The 160 pages go by way too fast.
