O knihe

FACT-BASED FICTION for ages 10-adult DEAR BALDY: is a parable about birds from their point of view. Birds live among man with concern of the possible elimination of their entire species.

Baldy, a bald eagle, is elected president of the bird kingdom by all the bird species. His first act of leadership is to develop a plan to contact and involve birds of each species in order to discover any concerns they might have. Most birds expressed concerns of clean air to breathe, a protected habitat, finding clean water and food with no contamination.

Replies to meet for a convention at the Colorado Bird Sanctuary brings good news from the robins, the hummingbirds and sparrows. The geese question leaving their home as it is time for their migration to the Arctic. The roadrunner fears that lack of food for his specific needs makes his attendance questionable. Dorcas the condor, close to extinction, wonders if the risk is worth taking.

The delegates anxiously flock to the Sanctuary and en-route become horrified as to what they find. Baldy, in a solo attempt to find a safe place for their overnight stay encounters unforeseen danger, hindering all hope for their future . . . until his chance meeting with Timid T. Sparrow.
