Dickey Downy: The Autobiography of a Bird

"Dickey Downy: The Autobiography of a Bird" is a collection of children's stories with birds as the main characters. The stories are written to enhance knowledge of the importance of birds. As the preface states, «If children are taught to love and protect the birds they will remember the lesson when they grow old. When children learn to prefer to take a „snap-shot“ at a bird with a camera, rather than with a gun, they will protect these feathered friends for their beauty, even if they do not regard them for their usefulness.»
