Wren will break your heart--and then mend it." --Nancy Werlin, National Book Award finalist for The Rules of Survival "Van Draanen\'s Wren is real and relatable, and readers will root for her." --VOYA, starred review About the author Wendelin Van Draanen is the author of many beloved and award-winning books. "I read Wild Bird in one long, mesmerized gulp.
Wren\'s going to have to admit she needs help if she\'s going to survive.
And bitter won\'t start a fire.
But angry can\'t put up a tent.
The Wren who arrives in the Utah desert is angry and bitter, and blaming everyone but herself.
Yeah, right.
Eight weeks to turn your life around.
Eight weeks of survivalist camping in the desert.
This is wilderness therapy camp.
This is what happens to kids who\'ve gone so far off the rails, their parents don\'t know what to do with them anymore.
She\'s hustled out of her house and into a waiting car, then a plane, and then taken on a forced march into the desert.
That\'s when they come for Wren Clemmens. m. 3: 47 a.
