A finely woven, captivating storyline that brilliantly does what all books by Rachel Yu do: enhance the child's knowledge as well as moral values, being thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining at the same time.This particularly innovative junior novel is a story about a young hawk who has gone through a big change in his life. In an entertaining flow of events, the story teaches the child of family values, adjusting to changes, friendship and hope. What's more, the detailed portrayal of how the many different birds live and interact in the form of a fluid, engaging story is very impressive.I bought it for my children as a (bit by bit every night) bedtime book, but when I started reading it I couldn't put it down so I resorted to solitary reading till I reached the end. The story is insightful and wise and also thoroughly enjoyable- a very rewarding purchase indeed. Recommended for any age but particularly for pre-teens!
