WINNER OF THE SCHNEIDER FAMILY BOOK AWARD A heartfelt and hopeful
debut about a bird-loving autistic child whose family's special
nest is in danger of falling apart. Axel loves everything about
birds, especially eagles. No one worries that an eagle will fly too
far and not come home-a fact Axel wishes his mother understood.
Deep down, Axel knows that his mother is like an osprey-the best of
all bird mothers-but it's hard to remember that when she worries
and keeps secrets about important things. His dad is more like a
wild turkey, coming and going as he pleases. His dad's latest
disappearance is the biggest mystery of all. Despite all this, Axel
loves his life-especially the time he spends with his friends
observing the eagles' nest in the woods near his home. But when a
tornado damages not only Axel's home but the eagles' nest, Axel's
life is thrown into chaos. Suddenly his dad is back to help repair
the damage, and Axel has to manage his dad's presence and his
beloved birds' absence. Plus, his mom seems to be keeping even more
secrets. But Axel knows another important fact: an eagle's
instincts let it soar. Axel must trust his own instincts to help
heal his family and the nest he loves. (Cover image may vary.)
