Ash and Feather is a novel in verse for upper middle grade and early young adult readers. In order to cope with the pain, fear, and confusion of her parent's cancer diagnosis, Phoenix, a fourteen-year-old girl, envisions herself and the people around her as birds. Phoenix's perspective is a poetic one: lyrical, subtle, and imbued with magic, yet her vision of her bird self is a concrete way to visualize existential questions. Through her feathery filter, we follow Phoenix as she interacts with her parent Eagle and grandparent Duck, navigates the hospital and middle school, and experiences her first queer love with best friend, Ing. She uses the power of her imagination to take flight from the ashes of her grief, gaining for the first time a sense of her own power.

When fourteen-year-old Phoenix learns of her parent, Eagle's cancer diagnosis, her shoulder blades start to itch. It's the end of summer vacation, eighth grade starts next week, and Phoenix's world collapses. Every hall she runs down, every room she hides in, Phoenix feels herself changing, growing wings while Eagle may be dying. She builds a new nest from the comfort of grandparent Duck, counselor Hen, and sweetheart Ing. But cancer is like a coyote howling in the hills waiting for Phoenix to land so it can destroy everything. If she is to rise from the ashes of this uncertain world- one of surgery and medicine, classes and teachers-Phoenix must learn to feel everything, and become the bird she always imagined.
Ash and Feather is an illustrated novel in verse for upper middle grade and early young adult readers. This story will be loved by anyone interested in supporting the mental health of tweens and teens; using literature and the arts to address cancer and other difficult experiences; reading magical realism, including animal/human hybrid characters.
