Combining stunning photographs with interesting facts, helpful hints, and easy to understand language, My Backyard Bird Book encourages children to get out and discover the amazing beauty of nature right in their own backyard. This beautiful book, released nationally in March 2021 by Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream Publishing, has quickly become a best seller, selling over 30,000 copies and hitting the Top 10 in several categories including #1 in “Children’s Earth Sciences Books” on Amazon“Writing this book has been such a rewarding and fun experience,” says Cheryl, “I have loved the reaction of children and adults as they use the books to identify the different birds that come to their backyards. Everyone especially enjoys the hints for attracting birds, what they eat, and details about each bird such as how much they weigh. Putting weights in terms that children can understand, such as ‘This bird weighs as much as 10 jelly beans’ really helps children to understand and connect with what they see.”In additional to writing My Backyard Bird Book, Cheryl is also the author of several other titles, and with the success of My Backyard Bird Book, Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream is moving forward with bringing three more of Cheryl’s books, Birding Scavenger Hunt, My Book of Amazing Birds, and Plumogy, to a national audience. Moving forward in her author journey, Cheryl made the decision to self publish all future books. These titles include My Texas Bird Book, Creatures of the Rainforest, and Backyard Critters and Creatures. Several new titles are in the works.
