Summary:
Amy is a young teenager when her mother is killed in a car accident. Because of it, she moves in with her estranged father. Amy finds her new life absolutely miserable. But, she finds abandoned goose eggs behind her home from when developers tore up the forest. They soon hatch and Amy becomes their 'mother' and takes care of them. Winter quickly arrives, and the geese must go south. Someone or something needs to show them the way. It is up to Amy and her father to make sure that the young geese find their way. With the assistance of her father's invention, they get the geese to fly south.
