BIRDS AND THEIR FEATHERS (HB)

Employing the earth-tone colouring and delicate illustrations which have won her plaudits and readers across the world, Britta Teckentrup turns her gaze to the endlessly fascinating feather. What are they made of? Why do birds have so many of them? How do they help birds fly? And what other purpose do they serve? An exquisitely rendered exploration of one of the simple, everyday marvels of the natural world.
