Why the Birds Fly Back (Paperback)

Paperback. You're not in control when you're in the Traverse, but it does respond to the things you ask for. After spending the entire summer at her great-aunt's house in Ocala, Florida, Marsha Claire Swallowtail cannot wait to go home to Maryland. Her excitement is short-lived, however, when her parents drop an unexpected bomb on Marsha and her three siblings: they will not be returning home to Maryland. Her father had decided, after having a disturbing prophetic dream about his sick twin brother, that the family would be moving back to Ocala, the Swallowtail ancestral home. Now, Marsha must come to terms with being the new girl in town, not to mention the fact that she has been having strange dreams of her own--dreams where she finds herself in a parallel world called the Traverse. These dreams have revealed Marsha's troubling family history, the mystery of a missing deed to long-disputed land, and a family tree in danger of going up in flames. Marsha must overcome her fear and anger and learn how to communicate with her ancestors in order to find the truth and help save her family. This item is printed on demand.
