New Zealand's Backyard Birds' is an engaging guide for children on the birds that live in their backyard. Most of the birds we see and hear in our daily lives are those that live alongside us in our own backyards. Some of these might be native birds, such as the tui, korimako/bellbird, kereru and piwakawaka/fantail. But just as likely they will be common birds brought by the early settlers from Europe, such as the thrush, blackbird, sparrow and starling . 'New Zealand's Backyard Birds', a sister publication to the hugely popular book about our insects, 'New Zealand's Backyard Beasts', brings to life our most accessible wildlife, with details on the different birds we are likely to see around our homes, and also with useful background information about birds in general. It is the latest book from leading author and illustrator, Ned Barraud, and will be an essential companion for every Kiwi child.

Sue - Paper Plus Masterton - November 2021

Based in Karori, Wellington, the author and illustrator, Ned Barraud brings to life the vibrant birdlife we have in our regional gardens. “This is an engaging guide to the birds that children see and hear in their everday lives, those that visit our backyards. Some of these will be native birds; maybe tui, korimako/bellbird or piwakawaka/fantail. There will also be introduced birds such as thrush, blackbirds or flocks of sparrows.” Perfect for educational purposes with useful information but also to create those moments of bird-watching observations in our local areas. A beautiful, useful book to treasure.
