Coast to Coast

When Birch agreed to one last flight in her grandfather’s Piper Cub, neither knew it would be a life-changing trip

Birch’s grandfather, “Pop,” wants to take his plane out for one more trip before moving into a retirement home. He wants to take Birch along with him, which sounds like a fine plan—until the two decide to turn the short flight into a cross-country adventure without telling Birch’s parents. As grandfather and granddaughter soar westward across strange, beautiful landscapes, Birch begins to learn more about her past, a grandmother she lost, and a family member she never knew she had.

Coast to Coast is a grand adventure; a heartwarming story of family revelations; and a panoramic view of the United States by air.
