BIRDS OF OUR LAND

Virginia Dike’s delightful children’s book will help youngsters learn to identify the 25 most common West African birds.

There is no better way to inspire a love of nature in the youngest minds. Virginia Dike is a professor and head of the Department of Library and Information Science at the University of Nigeria Nsukka, Nigeria.
