THE BACKYARD BIRD CHRONICLES

by | Read by Amy Tan, Evan Sibley

Biography & Memoir • 6.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

Author/narrator Amy Tan takes up bird watching to counteract the negativity and discord in the world. Tan is a joy to listen to--a charming and warm presence, with a dollop of self-deprecation, as she chronicles her learning journey. She exudes joy and wonder as a hummingbird feeds from her hand. There is anguish when, to avoid spreading a disease among the Pine Siskins, she removes the feeders, but the birds continue to fly about the yard looking for food. When Tan figures out a way to stop the birds from wasting good seed, the sense of triumph she feels at outsmarting those wasteful creatures is clear. Listeners should be sure to check out the beautiful sketches by Tan included in a pdf with the audio. A.B. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2024]
