"A perfect tale of outcasts, friendship, falconry, and the families we create.”--Tui T. Sutherland, New York Times bestselling author of the Wings of Fire series
In the vein of Barbara O’Connor’s Wish, a moving, poignant story told in alternating perspectives about a down-on-her-luck girl who rescues a baby owl, and how the two set each other free.
Great horned owl Rufus is eight months old and still can’t hunt. When his mother is hit by a car, he discovers just how dangerous the forest can be.
Reenie has given up on adults and learned how to care for herself―a good thing, since she’s sent to live with an aunt she’s never met. Yet this aunt has a wonderful secret: she’s a falconer who agrees to help Reenie catch an injured passage hawk in the wild and rehabilitate it.
When Reenie traps bedraggled Rufus, his eyes lock onto her heart, and they form a powerful friendship. But can Rufus learn to trust in the outside world and fly free? And can Reenie open her heart enough to truly soar?
- Animal Friendship: A down-on-her-luck girl and an orphaned baby owl must learn to trust each other to survive.
- Healing from Trauma: Reenie has learned not to rely on anyone. Rufus has lost his mother. Together, they discover that the families we create can be the ones that save us.
- Falconry for Kids: Discover the ancient art of falconry as Reenie learns from her mysterious aunt how to train, trust, and ultimately set a wild bird of prey free.
- A Moving, Emotional Story: Perfect for fans of Katherine Applegate and Barbara O’Connor, this heartfelt novel explores what it means to find your flock and learn to soar.
