Vulture View has wonderful illustrations showing the life of a vulture - and and what they eat - eww! There are books about many birds, but not many about this beautiful flyer. And, there are not too many books that help me teach about the letter "V" to my kindergartners.
Vulture View
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Stunning cut-paper collage fills each page with color and texture. A vulture flies, "Wings stretch wide to catch a ride on warming air. Going where?" The reader is asked to think about what vultures eat, "that snake over there? No, no. That fox over there? No, no...That stinky dead deer? Yes, yes!" The final two pages provide information about vultures, explaining how they use thermals to fly, where they nest and more. A web site is listed, and the reader learns that there are five festivals that "celebrate Turkey Vultures." Pair this book with Jonathan London's excellent book, Condor's Egg (Chronicle Books, 1994).
