Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three decades, author, speaker, and entrepreneur Merrick Rosenberg has taught America’s leading corporations how to embrace the power of personality. By replacing the alphabet soup found in personality assessments with four birds – the Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl – Rosenberg has helped people understand themselves and transform their relationships with colleagues, friends, and family members. Parents and teachers have long asked: Can you teach the birds to our children? From the author of Personality Wins, The Chameleon, and Taking Flight! comes the long-awaited book for children: Which Bird Are You? Young readers join 5th graders of Galen Elementary School at Camp Discovery for adventures (and misadventures) under the guidance of their teachers, Ms. Allport and Mr. Marston. By day, the students try to overcome their personality differences to complete Ms. Allport’s team building challenges. By night, Mr. Marston tells The Bird Tale, a fantasy adventure that follows four emissaries from the Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl kingdoms of Aviara. Their world faces disaster, but they are unsure of how to work together against their collective threats. The emissaries seek out the wise Chameleon Ambassador in hopes that she can teach them how to unite and save their people. Through a wild ride in Aviara and Camp Discovery, Which Bird Are You? prepares children for the lifelong journey of interacting with different personalities. Young readers learn to understand their bird style, its strengths and challenges, and the risks of overusing their personality. They also discover how to identify the bird styles of others and treat people the way they want to be treated. Will the emissaries save Aviara? Will the students learn to work together? If they can master the four questions of the Chameleon Code, they might just save the day and win it all.

Download or read book What It s Like to Be a Bird written by David Allen Sibley and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bird book for birders and nonbirders alike that will excite and inspire by providing a new and deeper understanding of what common, mostly backyard, birds are doing—and why: "Can birds smell?"; "Is this the same cardinal that was at my feeder last year?"; "Do robins 'hear' worms?" "The book's beauty mirrors the beauty of birds it describes so marvelously." —NPR In What It's Like to Be a Bird, David Sibley answers the most frequently asked questions about the birds we see most often. This special, large-format volume is geared as much to nonbirders as it is to the out-and-out obsessed, covering more than two hundred species and including more than 330 new illustrations by the author. While its focus is on familiar backyard birds—blue jays, nuthatches, chickadees—it also examines certain species that can be fairly easily observed, such as the seashore-dwelling Atlantic puffin. David Sibley's exacting artwork and wide-ranging expertise bring observed behaviors vividly to life. (For most species, the primary illustration is reproduced life-sized.) And while the text is aimed at adults—including fascinating new scientific research on the myriad ways birds have adapted to environmental changes—it is nontechnical, making it the perfect occasion for parents and grandparents to share their love of birds with young children, who will delight in the big, full-color illustrations of birds in action. Unlike any other book he has written, What It's Like to Be a Bird is poised to bring a whole new audience to David Sibley's world of birds.
