Feathers in the Wind
Two children accompany their parents as they travel the world helping animals on the verge of extinction. As their parents work alongside international agencies, the children have their own thrilling adventures.

Feathers in the Wind is written with the assistance and guidance of London Zoo's conservation team. All information is accurate and the stories are full of excitement and tension

When the Brook family travel to India for the annual kite festival in Ahmedabad, Joe can't wait to buy his own kite at the night-time bazaar and get involved with the locals' celebrations. However, the festivities have a little-known darker side - the strings of fighter kites are glazed with shards of glass (so that they can cut down other kites) and these kite strings injure many birds as they become entangled in them. Joe's mother will be working day and night at a rescue centre as she aims to save every single injured bird, particularly the endangered vultures. Can Joe and Aesha pull off a daring rescue attempt of their own on the day of the festival?

Sally Grindley is the author of bestselling and award-winning fiction for young readers. Here she brings to life a story of how humans and wildlife can live side by side, set in India.
