Description
THWACK!
Sitting in the backseat of the car, Daphne is dying of boredom just thinking about the two weeks she’s about to spend camping with her family. Suddenly—THWACK! A bird crashes into the windshield. When Daphne’s dad gets out of the car to see if the bird is all right, another one dive-bombs right into his head—and draws blood. Daphne watches in horror as more birds attack, and it isn’t long before a carefree summer day turns into her family’s worst nightmare.
