A Guide to Listening
Donald Kroodsma
Illustrated by Larry Mcqueen & Jon Janosik

This collection of bird songs for Western North America makes you glad you can hear. Young learners hearing these birds' songs and cries get a chance to connect to their world in an entirely new and different way. So much of the sound children hear is negative, frightening, and demanding.

This book gives them pure sound -- without editing, layering, spin, or a group's message. This kind of sound can open doors and give children permission to explore and hear the world's song in a deeply personal way that lets them experience a world they will cherish, care for, and value.

This ingenious book lets you listen to a sampling of songs from a wide selection of birds. (You find each bird's song by scrolling to its number on the LCD screen attached to the book and pressing the play button.) This book covers 75 birds, with their unique songs and cries.

Each bird's song is accompanied by a full-page detailed drawing with enough text to spark interest in the bird's habits, convey the need for habitat protection so the bird can continue to sing, and allow for bird identification. These books may even encourage a latent/budding naturalist, conservationist, or environmentalist -- and even very young children love listening to the bird songs.

(Ages: 7 and up)

Canadian Shipping:
We ship all Canadian orders by air. Payment must be in U.S. funds. The order recipient will be responsible for any duty/custom charges when the package arrives in Canada. Air mail rates: Add 15% of your subtotal, with a $7.95 minimum charge.

International Shipping:

We hope to offer you international ordering online soon. In the meantime, you may call 619-670-5200, fax 619-670-5203, or email us at customerservice@chinaberry.net with your order to find out what your shipping charge would be. If you are having your order shipped internationally, UPS requires that you include a phone number for them to contact for delivery information.

We ship international orders (except Canadian) via Air Express only. While this ensures your order will arrive very quickly (within one week), it is also very expensive. (Shipping generally begins at about $65.00 for a one pound package and goes up with weight.)

As an affordable alternative, many of our international customers have their orders shipped to a friend or relative in the U.S who will forward the orders on to them.

Sales Tax

We collect sales tax based on the "ship to" address of your order. We are required to collect sales tax in California, which is where we are located. If you're shipping to California, please include tax as follows:

We don't collect tax on gift certificates.

Sales Tax Exemption

We are required by law to collect sales tax on any orders going to California. If you are a tax-exempt organization, we need to have a copy of the Exemption Certificate issued to you by the State of California on file before you can order tax-free.

If you are ordering by phone, please call our customer service line, 1-888-481-6744, between 6am and 6pm Pacific time.
