I liked the part when the boy saved the pigeon, and cured it.
The part I liked the least was when grandad said they had to pull down a periagron falcon's nest down.
This is an incredible book, I got it from school. A boy lives in his grandpa's yard with the racing pigeon champ but when it goes missing the boy does everything to try to get it back before his grandpa comes.
I thought it was interesting and good. I like Goldie because she’s a champion racer and has golden eyes. Yes i would reccomend the book.
I like it I wish I have a champion bird like that
