In this novel, a large group of captive birds led by Manaul, a Philippine Eagle, and aided by unlikely creatures, try to engineer a daring escape from a private aviary in the city. Their aim is to find a mate and a companion for the latest and youngest captive of the aviary: a rare Sulu Hornbill. To achieve this, they must fly over a whole archipelago and return the endangered bird to her natural habitat. This is a rich novel that not only
introduces the young reader to environmental issues and to the beauty of the many birds that make the Philippines their home, it also tells a story of friendship, unity and courage.
