Of course, as a bird who detects deadly gas leaks in a West Virginia coal mine during the Depression, he is used to facing danger. Tired of unsafe working conditions, he escapes and hops a coal train to the state capital to seek help in improving the plights of miners and their canaries.

But Bitty's return to Coalbank Hollow coincides with a shattering mining accident that affects humans and canaries alike.\nIn the tradition of E.B.
