I Am a Bald Eagle: Learning to Fish the River joins the I Am a Wild Bird series from author Kimberlee Everson. On the day after a storm, a juvenile bald eagle-mottled brown, dark-beaked, not yet crowned in white-must learn to spot a meal in a fast, muddy river. In a clear, first-person voice, River-Young moves from hunger and uncertainty through patient watching, small setbacks, and finally a sure-footed catch, ending with calm fullness and quiet pride.

Along the river park, Kenji-a child with cardboard wings, a red scarf, and binoculars-mirrors the eagle's choices in playful, safe ways. Their side-by-side journeys invite young readers to look closely, listen for wind, and notice how light, current, rocks, and eddies shape the surface of water.

Real natural history is woven through every page and gathered in a friendly fact spread at the end: talons that lock tight around slippery fish, a 6-7 foot wingspan, juvenile plumage that stays mottled for years, and the simple trick of keeping the sun at your back to see past glare. For ages 5-10, this gentle story honors patience, perseverance, and the wonder of meeting a wild river with careful eyes.
