Synopsis

A charming, cheeky story about a magpie with one very important job!

Magpie has one job, one desire, one purpose: KEEP THE EGGS SAFE.

Always on alert for danger, will Magpie's determination be enough when rock-carrying intruders arrive?

Why do magpies swoop and why do we have such a fascination with them? Discover more about these clever, cheeky and charming songbirds through this delightful book.

Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 5 to 9.
