When Nathan was young, Mr. Lewis taught him about birds. And while Nathan still loves birds, he does not love that Mr. Lewis has suddenly decided to travel cross-country to see him. Or that his ex-boyfriend is getting married. Or that his mom has retired to Costa Rica and can’t figure out Skype. But who needs people when you’ve got birds, and John James Audubon’s illustrations of them? Join Nathan as he reveals the secret lives of birds…and tries to figure out how to take flight himself.
