Summary:
Mia doesnt want a new start. Shed rather everything just stayed the same! At least things will be the same at Grandmas, though. Mia will walk to town for ice cream, and wait by the water, watching for birds, just like always. Then Mia meets Grandmas know-it-all new neighbor, whos just her age. Cayman acts like he belongs at Grandmas house. He acts like hes the expert on everything. And when he and Mia spot an unusual white bird of prey, he acts like its his job to find out what it is. Unless, that is, Mia finds out first. And, in her effort to prove herself to him, she makes a decision that will change things for the town, for the bird, for Cayman, and even for herself. Can Mia stop what shes put into motion? Acclaimed author Cynthia Lord, with her trademark sensitivity, weaves her love of nature with a profound reflection on what it means to be at home in a changing world.
