I thought it would be interesting, but not very exciting and maybe a little dry. I thought maybe I would put it on my nightstand and read a chapter or two in between other books.  So when I received it, I first flipped through the book and looked at the pictures and read the chapter titles, and then decided to just read a bit of the first chapter.
Well, the mystery book I had been reading was put aside, and I read your book from cover to cover in three days.
     It is an adventure story and written with humor and in a way that held my interest until the very last word. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Every school child knows that it is right to save endangered species. Yet that learning is somehow forgotten by many as they grow older. This book provides a current view of ongoing recovery programs for three magnifiecient birds. It is thorough, accurate, and an interesting chronology of how species can make a comeback with the involvement and push of a whole lot of people and the help from a special individual.
