The Language of a Chickadee

The Language of a Chickadee by Edmund Watson

Jody Baxter’s future seemed certain: ski racing glory, a first love, and a life full of adventure.

That is, until his father left him without a goodbye.

His search for answers about his father’s death push Jody to question those he loves most, and even his grip on reality.

Haunted by a phantom chickadee and his father’s poetry, Jody is forced to see his family, and his past, in a new unsettling light.

With honesty and compassion, The Language of a Chickadee offers both perspective and connection for those moving through grief, including those not yet ready to share their stories aloud.
