Description
"Wisp has a learning problem: he can't read stars. For a juvenile nighthawk bursting with wanderlust, this means trouble-- with his peers, his parents, and the starving colony that tries to fence him in. So he ditches everyone, striking off on a forbidden migratory journey from the Amazon to the Arctic, alone--or so he thinks"--P. [4] of cover.
