Stand on the Sky
Forthcoming March 2019
Thirteen-year-old Aisulu has never been her family's golden child: that's her older brother, Serik. But when Serik falls critically ill, the family rallies around him -- leaving Aisulu on the outside.
But Aisulu also has a secret: her last adventure with Serik left a baby golden eagle orphaned in its nest. If she can save the eagle and win a place among Mongolia's eagle hunters, Aisulu might also be able to reshape her family -- and save Serik's life.
A middle-grade with a classic feel, a tale of adventure and heroism, healing and hope, STAND ON THE SKY will leave your heart soaring.
