It is the perfect tool for navigating the 'eco-anxiety' that often arises when children learn about environmental changes. The book provides a clear, science-based explanation for why bird populations are declining while emphasizing the power of human agency and conservation. Through a blend of gentle investigation and empowering calls to action, the story explores themes of empathy and justice for the natural world. It is developmentally appropriate for elementary-aged children, offering enough facts to satisfy their curiosity without becoming overwhelming. Parents will appreciate how it transforms a potentially sad realization into a meaningful family project for protecting local wildlife.
