Opinion:
The book Birdies Book has an interesting plot but is not very unique. It is the run of the mill fairy book for younger kids. As a teenager, this book was boring and childish, however a second or third grader may enjoy it. One great component of this book was the detail. I could picture myself in the settings, which I enjoy. The ending of the book was far-fetched. It was the expected ending. I would recommend this book to younger kids interested in fairies and plants.
