About This Book

Two children lost in a magical forest are transformed into birds and swept into a series of whimsical avian adventures that mix fairy-tale wonder with accurate touches of bird behavior. They are welcomed into bird society, attend receptions, hear tales from an oriole and a bluejay, encounter an owl, visit an eagle's nest and a honey palace, and become involved in disputes with destroyers and rebels that lead to a climactic battle and eventual restoration. The episodes alternate playful fantasy with lessons about community, care for young animals, and the natural habits of birds.
