The first volume in Sidekick Books’ four-part illustrated poetry ornothopedia, now in its second printing. Over 40 species of bird celebrated in contemporary poem and illustration, including the swift, the sparrowhawk, the nightingale and more beloved garden birds than you can rattle a feeder at.

Poets and artists continue to be drawn to these hollow-boned sons and daughters of dinosaurs, their eccentricities and foibles, their intricate designs and virtuoso aerobatic feats that exceed the capabilities of all present technology. And since birds, poetry and illustration are as sure an alchemy as salt, mercury and sulphur, Sidekick's ingenious chief editor, Dr Fulminare, has brought these three elements together in perfect unison, producing an array of contemporary work to satisfy eye, ear and imagination!
