Shelley | 5 comments When I was a child in the 1980's I read a book that was about a girl who was drinking a potion and she began to turn into a bird, I am almost positive that it was a goose. I remember one part of the book she started growing wings first and she hid them under a large sweatshirt. I loved that book but I have tried unsuccessfully for years to find what that book is. I grew up in the Boston area. I am not sure if that will help.

The Fledgling has flying and geese, but no potion.
