The book revolves around the experiences of the narrator as she tends to various bird patients in her home, emphasizing themes of compassion, responsibility, and the joys of pet ownership. The characters include a variety of birds, with special focus on individual companions such as Little Billee, Taffy the cat, and Cady the robin, among others. At the start of the narrative, the author introduces us to her love for animals and her makeshift hospital for injured birds.
