1One for Sorrow, Two for Joy has major, major problems in terms of accuracy in bird behavior and
biology, to the point where anyone knowledgeable about birds would probably not enjoy it.
2Although it is recommended because it is well written and, IMO, an important work in anthropomorphic literature,
The Book of Sorrows is a very, very gruesome and depressing book. I recommend it with the warning that it absolutely
is not for children, and adults should be warned that reading it is not a pleasant experience, but more like an ordeal to
be endured.
3Not technically a man vs. animal story, this is about a staged fight between a great white shark and a Kodiak bear.
