First, I hate flamingos.  When I worked in a zoo we called them pink buzzards and hated being anywhere near them.  Personal feelings toward the birds notwithstanding, this is an excellent book for children.  It gives the basic information in simple, understandable terms, and the only reason I didn't give it five stars is because of some repetition I considered unneeded.  It is well illustrated and follows a logical format.  As a one-time Biology teacher I consider anything giving people an understanding of nature a good thing, and this book does a good job of giving a good, but not needlessly detailed, background on a group of birds most people know little about.
