Seabird Island

by Takaki Terasawa

illus. by Hiroshi Abe

This beautifully illustrated book is a love song to the million-strong population of birds who make their home on the tiny island of Teuri in northern Japan. From the world’s largest colony of rhinoceros auklets to Japan’s largest colony of spectacled guillemots, it is a true seabird paradise. The lyrical text follows a year of island life and the many birds that come and go, accompanied by rich and dynamical illustrations.
