The birds can even be taught to fly and to sing! This slyly satirical crafter's delight is offered as the perfect antidote to extinction of birds in the wild.
Brilliantly illustrated with oil paintings and filled with laugh-aloud asides as well as sobering facts about extinct species, this mock catalog is a clever send-up of contemporary sales spin and a thought-provoking look into an all-too-possible future.

About the Author:
Featured Sketches from "Aviary Wonders" with Author Comments
I needed to figure out exactly how each part would be attached and in what order. Before settling on using a bird body minus its parts, I considered offering ways to transform rodents into birds. I began working on this project while studying printmaking and had planned to create the whole catalog by hand, starting with this etching. I developed the concept and layout in watercolor.Kate Samworth studied (and taught) painting at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Art and printmaking at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Art, where she took an illustration course with David Wiesner. She lives on a farm in Stanardsville,Virginia, teaches and paints at a studio in Charlottesville, and travels widely.She is an ardent spokesperson for environmental protection and preservation.
