Nessa wants to learn more about her world. When she tells her nest mates of her plan to find answers from Father North--they scoff and tease her and fly south together. So begins her journey north--alone, brave and believing, yet not aware of perils awaiting her. This is a story I hope will give youngsters a new perspective on goals, rewards and confidence. Finally, a lost, lonely and near starved Nessa, if found by the conservationist who has a clinic at the North Pole-Father North himself.
