High society in Boston has gone completely bird-crazy! The latest fashion trend has women wearing hats decorated with real feathers, wings, and sometimes even entire stuffed birds. Harriet Hemenway and her cousin Minna Hall think this new style is absolutely ridiculous and terribly cruel to their feathered friends. Determined to put an end to the feathery fashion craze, these two bold women decide to take action. They start organizing tea parties, gathering their friends, and speaking out to protect the birds they love so much. Their clever and courageous efforts eventually lead to the creation of the famous Audubon Society. This delightful and beautifully illustrated story brings history to life, showing young readers how speaking up for nature can spark a massive change and save the environment.
