Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Animals Have Classes Too! Birds
Lisa Colozza Cocca · 2019
70/100
👍 Worth It
A well-targeted classroom tool that introduces Linnaean taxonomy through birds — a smart choice because bird diversity is visually engaging and familiar to young children. The Rourke Educational series is widely distributed and consistently reliable for grades 1–3 science instruction. At 24 pages it is a starting point, not a deep dive, but for the age group that is the right call.
