ForeWord Magazine, in its July/August 2008 issue, features a review of Sparrows:

"Sparrows, originally published in the Netherlands…is easy for children to comprehend; at the same time, they receive educational information. Parents and teachers can use this book as an instructional tool for elementary school children. The illustrations are clear, such as the picture of the mother bird laying eggs, and adults should prepare to answer questions that young ones may have. ... Overall, Sparrows ignites a love of bird watching into children."
