Northwest Washington State, 1985 For years, Harris Hayes has taught his daughter, Aggie, the ways of the northern woods.
Perfect for fans The Scent Keeper, The Snow Child, and The Great Alone, Sugar Birds immerses readers in a layered, evocative coming-of-age story set in the breathtaking natural world where characters encounter the mending power of forgiveness--for themselves and for those who have failed them..
One is autistic; the other, dangerous.
But when she joins the hunt for Aggie, she meets two irresistible young men who compel her to stay.
Hurting from her parents\' breakup, she also plans to run.
A search party gathers by Aggie\'s empty boat hours after Celia, fresh off the plane from Houston, arrives at her grandmother\'s nearby farm.
She lands her boat near untamed forest, where she hides among the trees and creatures she considers her only friends--determined to remain undiscovered.
Angry, the ten-year-old accidentally lights a tragic fire, then flees downriver.
Aggie is in a tree far overhead when her unpredictable mother spots her and forbids her to climb.
So when her mother\'s depression worsens, Harris shows the girl how to find and sketch the nests of wild Birds as an antidote to sadness.
