A joyful, educational flight from the halls of Chicago's Field Museum to the nests of mighty peregrine falcons
Rosie the Tarantula, famous for her adventure in the corridors and collections of Chicago's celebrated Field Museum of Natural History, is back. This time, Rosie is focused not on spiders, but on falcons! The Falcon Experience brings us with Rosie as she follows Mary Hennen, the museum's real-life peregrine program director, giving children and parents alike a front-row seat to the lives of these majestic birds and the scientist who cares for them. Rosie learns how falcons fly, hunt, eat, mate, construct nests and raise chicks (via the peregrine webcam!) in unexpected and challenging places in the city. Mary's teachings also show how humans can be the key to helping our natural environment.
Beautifully illustrated with watercolors by renowned Field Museum artist-in-residence Peggy Macnamara, The Falcon Experience is told by Peggy's daughter, author and educator Katie Macnamara, in rhyme ideal for reading aloud to children. This keepsake-quality book will delight budding young scientists and their families while providing a colorful, interactive experience with one of Chicago's foremost cultural institutions.
