Amid the sparkle and hum of a New York City winter, Jed and his best friend, Flyer, are filming a documentary of their neighborhood. All around them are images that Jed's older brother Zeke wrote about: drummers, drunks, dog walkers, and the beautiful water towers that dot the city's skyline. But what Jed is really in search of is Zeke, a poet who loved jazzman Charlie "Bird" Parker and who left behind his CDs, a notebook, and a lot of unanswered questions. When Jed encounters a mysterious homeless girl he thinks holds the key to connecting him to Zeke, it could be his only way to unlock his deepest sorrow and discover how to be -- who to be -- on his own. As true and lyrical as a sax solo, Birdland touches down at the core of the human heart and sends it soaring. 538 Requires OverDrive Media Console (file size: 41627 KB). 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Video recordings|xProduction and direction|vJuvenile fiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Brothers|vJuvenile fiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Speech disorders|vJuvenile fiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Jews|zNew York (State)|zNew York|vJuvenile fiction.|vSound recordings. 651 0 New York (N.Y.)|vJuvenile fiction. 700 1 Graham, Dion. 856 40 |uhttps://naperville.overdrive.com/media/|zAvailable on OverDrive/Libby
