The Feather Birdhouse

Or Birds On The Move

Beschreibung

The Feather Birdhouse or Birds On The Move is a coming-of-age adventure story about a bird named Squawky (a great-grackle) who keeps getting into trouble. His friends, the four Wend sisters (starlings), the Doves, and Pidge (an inexperienced rock pigeon), can't help. Luckily, Uncle Motley, the old cowbird is there to give advice to all. This is a great book for young readers interested in imaginative stories about birds, nature, and caring about the environment. The book contains 22 color illustrations and information to learn more about birds. It challenges the reader to create a nature journal, story, or bird record of their own to answer the question - What's in Your Birdhouse World? Based on real birds, people, places, and events, the Feather Birdhouse is an outdoor birdhouse world in the city. Squawky, an orphan raised by doves, sets out on a troubled quest to find a girlfriend and figure out where he fits into the bird world. Meanwhile, environmental and human factors, unknown to the birds, threaten everything. Will the Feather Birdhouse be destroyed? Who will save the day? Squawky navigates through difficult situations including being bullied by the Grackle Gang and being made fun of by Brassy and the Beauty Birds. But in the end, he gets through all his troubles and reminds us that it's tough to be a bird!
