Publisher's Synopsis
Destined to be a Canadian Christmas classic...
Set against the backdrop of a snowy 1960s Montreal, "The Christmas Bird Diary" follows Mairin Lang, a university student returning home for the holidays. What begins as a typical family Christmas soon transforms into an intriguing scientific mystery when Mairin discovers her late grandfather Murray's ornithological diary.
"A magical tale of snowbirds and a granddaughter's quest. The perfect story to read curled up by a fire with a cup of eggnog in hand. A perfect gift at Christmastime."
