Synopsis
A timid, unpopular boy learns about courage, love, and luck through a school project involving a strong-willed elderly woman, the abandoned house where her son died, and the legend of the Firebird., Twelve-year-old Robert Nobel is a nerd. He admits it. Bullies love him because he's so self-deprecating that he practically hands himself over to his tormentors. When he's paired with nursing home resident Edith Sorel as part of a school arts project, Robert's life is transformed. Ghost houses, the mysterious death of Edith's son, a coat of feathers, and the rush to finish his project before she dies all converge to change Robert in profound ways.

Industry Reviews
"The easygoing, plainspoken style adds appeal and brings the mystically touched story within reach of a broad range of readers."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Deborah Stevenson (04/01/2002)
