Sky Dancer Jack Bushnell
HarperCollins, 1996
enny stood transfixed as the hawk first appeared on a crisp, clear February morning. She watched as it swooped before her, one wing almost touching the ground, the other pointing toward the sky. This story of a remarkable friendship between a young girl and the wild bird who seemed to know her is filled with the wonder of nature and the magic of childhood.
