About this book

Growing up, Birdy dreams of flying like the canaries he studies, and shares these fantasies with his best friend Al. Years later, during WWII, Birdy and Al wind up in hospitals. Al has physical wounds, and Birdy--who has adapted bird mannerisms--is being treated for psychological wounds. Has he lost his mind, or is he trying to avoid further duty? It is up to Al to try to get through to his old friend.
