Discover Mya-Rose Craig's moving and empowering memoir about family, the quest for rare birds, and the power of our natural world. In her memoir, Mya-Rose Craig and her family travel the world in search of rare birds and stunning landscapes. But a shadow follows them - the deteriorating mental health of her mother. Faced with this struggle, the Craigs repeatedly turn to nature, which offers joy and tranquility. Through these travel experiences, Mya-Rose witnesses the inequality and destruction we inflict on our fragile planet. Thus, through the simple, mindful act of birdwatching, she becomes even more determined to fight for our survival.
“A delightful narrative of a young life dedicated to birdwatching - and the fight to save the birds and the places they live” - Stephen Moss
