Can a choir of small voices rise up against a gang of bullies?

When tyrannical Chief Inspector Pica and his magpie gang demand "protection payments" from the Songbird Choir - their precious eggs and hatchlings - the garden falls under threat of ruin. Rube the robin, more used to singing than leading, must rise to the challenge and rally allies before it's too late.

From slingshot-wielding great tits and mimicry-master starlings to a banished crow with something to prove, a diverse army of birds bands together to defend their nests. Along the way, Rube discovers that courage can come from the most unlikely places, and that even the smallest wings can turn the tide when community stands united.

Fast-paced, heartwarming, and full of natural history woven seamlessly into the action, The Songbird Army delivers thrilling battles, emotional stakes, and moments of humor and tenderness. Young readers will learn about familiar garden birds while being swept up in an unforgettable adventure of resilience, friendship, and standing up to bullies.

Perfect for fans of Kieran Larwood's The Legend of Podkin One-Ear, Brian Jacques' Redwall series, and Dick King-Smith's animal classics, this early middle-grade novel will resonate with emerging independent readers aged 7-9 - and with anyone who believes that even the quietest voices can change the world.
