The Secret Language of Birds

Nina is used to feeling like the odd one out, both at school and in her large family. But while trying to fit in at summer camp, she discovers something even more peculiar: two majestic birds have built a nest in the marsh behind an abandoned infirmary. They appear to be whooping cranes, but that’s impossible — Nina is an amateur bird-watcher, and all her resources tell her that those rare birds haven’t nested in Texas for over a hundred years.

When Nina reports the sighting to wildlife officials, more questions arise. Experts track all the endangered birds, but they can’t identify the female bird that Nina found. Who is she, and where did she come from? With the help of some fellow campers, Nina sets out to discover who the mystery bird really is. As she gets closer to the truth, will she find a flock of her own? This instant classic by the award-winning author of Song for a Whale captures the coming-of-age moment of learning to spread your wings in a way you'll never forget.

Description

"Ever since a mockingbird sang her name and led her to his nest, Nina has been obsessed with birds — she finds them easier than people. Nina has trouble with boundaries and making friends: 'It’s like there are rules everyone knows but me'.... Nina must trust fellow new campers Georgie, Emma, and Ant with her discovery if she’s going to solve the mystery of where the birds came from. Doing that just might help Nina figure out friendship, too — if they don’t get kicked out of camp first.... A slow but cozy and relatable read for nature lovers and those unraveling the mystery of friendship." — Kirkus Reviews
