Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Destined to be a Canadian Christmas classic...Set against the backdrop of a snowy 1960s Montreal, "The Christmas Bird Diary" follows Mairin Lang, a university student returning home for the holidays. What begins as a typical family Christmas soon transforms into an intriguing scientific mystery when Mairin discovers her late grandfather Murray's ornithological diary."A magical tale of snowbirds and a granddaughter's quest. The perfect story to read curled up by a fire with a cup of eggnog in hand. A perfect gift at Christmastime."-Will Ferguson, Giller Prize Winning author of 419 and Coal-Dust Kisses: A Christmas Memoir

"It would be hard to find a Christmas story more Canadian than The Christmas Bird Diary. Winter. History. War and Peace. Les oiseaux. And above all else, something quirky - in this, quirky being the revelation of the soul of who we Canadians are and have likely always been. Bravo Matt Poll. You have touched a nerve - the very way we hope others see us - Canucks. Joyeux Noël..."-David Bouchard, Governor General's Award-winning author of The Song Within my Heart and the White Raven awarded Aboriginal Carol
