The book uses simple, easy to understand language to teach children what hummingbirds are, how they look, how they move, what they eat, and where they live. Many varieties of hummingbirds are introduced, from the smallest to the largest.

John Sill is a nature freelance artist and illustrator. He illustrated his wife’s “About” series.
