The Secret Language of Birds, by Lynne Kelly, is a great book. My favorite part of the book is at the beginning, when the main character Nina gets left at the gas station. It’s an intriguing part to me. I love the character Audrey, I find her funny and I like how she helps Nina when trying to find birds. I would recommend this book to people with big imaginations and niche interests, or people who just want a different read. I would say the message the author is trying to convey is to find where you are most accepted and appreciated. A part of the story that stood out to me is when the campers were trying to figure out why one of the cranes had no leg band. I liked the mystery aspect of it, and how it was portrayed in text. Overall The Secret Language of Birds, by Lynne Kelly, is an interesting and fun read.
