A Bird's Eye View on Honor

Baldy Eagle is a wonder animal personification story which defines honor in comparison to destruction. Also, the book gives the reader a rich description of different types of eagles. In the story Baldy wakes one day and decides to make a new friend. So, after a brief introduction about characteristics of bald eagles, he sets off and meet's Little Tom Gopher who is being destructive. I like the way Baldy explains to Little Tom about honor and what he does to help Little Tom. I feel children could easily relate to either of the characters. Finally, the last chapter very fluently describes many different types of eagles. The use of adjectives and comparisons helps the reader to easily get a picture of these eagles. This story would be an excellent resource for any character education lesson. Yet at the same time would be just as usful in a science unit. It is written on a second grade reading level but could easily be used by any child or teacher in elementary school. This book is just one in the Feather tale Series.Each has a bird for the main character who is teaching a secondary character about some human virtue.
