Review:
It is about a boy who lives on this airship where his father worked before he died. He goes on this adventure, and he finds a girl with her grandfather’s sketches of these beautiful birds. Through the whole story, he and that girl are looking for the wonder birds in the sky. They encounter pirates who take everything from them including hurting their ship. So they can't make it far. They end up landing on this mysterious island where they find weird looking bones which in a different way look like the wonder birds. The wonder birds are long, big, white birds who blend in with the clouds. That explains why they' so hard to see. So they found these bones and they wonder how they got there. Then they remembered an entry in the journal that the grandfather saw a bird get born and that they get born in the air! They have to learn how to fly as soon as they're born, or they can't live and will smash into the ground. All around, this book is an excellent adventure.
