Enjoy the world of colourful birds as they chirp, cheep, and squawk throughout various short stories.

Five different varieties of birds are featured in the stories, with each story focusing on the use of a certain verb. The verb tenses are printed in the colour of the bird in the story. Also included are facts about each of the five varieties of birds, along with pictures and links to bird songs.

The book Out of the Beaks of Birds: Our Crazy, Pesky...Verbs is geared for several levels. Preschool children will enjoy looking at the birds and will hear correct language through listening as someone reads to them. The stories use words recommended for children to know prior to kindergarten.

Early elementary students can hear correct usage and practice reading. Students doing reports on birds can turn to the pages with facts about the birds and follow links to websites for more information.
