Synopsis

Third grader Ben meets a “bird girl” in book one of this serial chapter book series of seven books.

She’s a crow most of the time and at others a girl. The Bird Girl invites Ben to join her Bird Club and other club members in a risky (but fun) mission to cross The Impossible Divide, a place that separates people from animals.

In Book One of this seven-book serial, Ben joins the Bird Club just as its oldest member, a fifth grader, prepares to quit it. Ursula doesn't want to leave the club, but she'll soon turn ten. And the Bird Girl (who calls herself Benita) becomes invisible to anyone over ten. Ursula, Benita, and the club members prepare for this sad occasion with a special club meeting. Unknown to them, an unseen stranger also attends, one who is about to change everything they know.
