This is such an important topic and the book does a great job of exploring the issue. Unfortunately, while it's a subject that I feel passionately about, I felt that the writing was a bit dry and it was hard to get into the book. I will still recommend it since this is such an important conversation.

I admit that I picked up the book because of the title and cover, but I paid no mind to the subtitle. Therefore I was surprised to read it was about much more than just meadowlarks. The book is about agricultural practices and how farmers can cultivate the land taking into consideration local wildlife. A very interesting read!

Overall,an interesting read, but would have preferred to read on my gadget instead of the computer. I was interested in the concept, since the meadowlark is a favorite bird of mine. Love the colors and song of this happy bird. The state bird of North Dakota. Would recommend.
