Unfortunately, sometimes his treasure hatches, and this time the hatchling is the strangest one the \u003ci\u003eGrosbeak \u003c\/i\u003ehas ever seen. No sailor is certain whether the chick is a young god or just an oversized bird who needs too much food, but one thing is clear: the winds over Thrushland are shifting, and dramatic changes are in store for all. Whether outwitting a gang of thieving crows, outrunning murderous fishers and weasels, or rallying Briarloch's beleaguered sparrows, this motley crew must do all they can to stay together and stay alive. And that's just the tip of the bird's feather  Offering a bounty of illustrations and a host of memorable characters -- from an endearing star-nosed mole to an unlikely little warrior with a vendetta -- here is a treasure for anyone who has ever wanted to take to the skies and see where fortune blows.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eScott Nash \u003c\/b\u003ehas illustrated more than forty children's books, and now, inspired by his childhood readings of such classics as \u003ci\u003eTreasure Island \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/i\u003e, his lifelong love of bird-watching, and an urge to take on a new challenge, he has created his most ambitious project to date, his first novel and his first foray into an entirely new and technically precise style of artwork.
