Raising a golden eagle in captivity teaches the Durdens much. They teach Lady but she teaches them more. They watch as learns and figures things out. They also learn if and how she will parent. Using this knowledge they film Lady and she stars in several Walt Disney productions as well as other Hollywood productions. The Durdens also show that what Lady does is not a Hollywood script.I loved this book. It teaches but is full of humor especially towards the son. He becomes Lady's enemy in her eyes while his dad is her mate especially during egg laying season. When the family goes house hunting it is funny as the wife explains what they need for the eagle. She'll be happy with two baths. It is a quick read but informative and humorous and shows golden eagles in a way most of us have not seen.
