Long ago in the far-off Northern Lands ...

An egg is laid ...

A chick is hatched ...

And the adventure of a lifetime ...

Begins.

Abel was the son of the loon chieftain. He was bigger, stronger, and faster than any other chick in the colony. But there was one thing he couldn't do ... Abel could not sing.

Rejecting his father and his teachings, Abel sets out on the lake to prove his independence. But a danger awaits that will soon test the prodigal loon chick in ways that he could never imagine.

A story of rebellion, redemption, and the love of a father that defies all understanding ...
