Maggie the One-Eyed Peregrine Falcon A True Story of Rescue and Rehabilitation

Maggie has just learned to fly when she crashes into the side of a building. She falls to the ground, alone and injured. Who will help her? As told with real photographs, this true story explains how wildlife hospitals rescue and treat injured animals. Their goal is to release the animals back into the wild. Sometimes, this isn’t possible—but there can still be a happy ending. Maggie’s story, written by Christie Gove-Berg, is just such a success!
