Description
The earth is old and we are not, and that is all you must remember. Eleven-year-old Willodeen loves creatures of all kinds, especially the most unlovable beasts in the land: strange 'screechers'. To the villagers, they're pests or monsters, but Willodeen believes animals serve a vital role in nature. Recently, Perchance has been struggling with fires, mudslides, droughts, and fevers. The annual migration of hummingbears, a source of local pride and income, has dwindled to nothing this year. The tiny animals usually overwinter in shimmering bubble nests on blue willow trees, drawing tourists from far and wide. But not a single hummingbear has returned, leaving everyone puzzled. Willodeen's determination to speak up for the animals she loves is sparked by an unexpected gift that brings magic into her life. She sets out to uncover the mystery of the missing hummingbears and make a difference for the creatures she cares about.
