While his siblings and cousins all learn to fly, Calvin lets his imagination soar by burying his beak in a book instead. Unfortunately, when it's time to migrate, the land-bound "geeky beaky" realizes his family will have to carry him. Then, on their way south, they run into a hurricane—and only Calvin, with his book learning, can save the day! A true celebration of the joy of reading.A young starling chooses to read books when his cousins are learning to fly, and the knowledge he acquires comes in handy when a hurricane threatens the flock's migration.
