Book Review

This is a lovely book written in rhyming verse and illustrated by Suzanne Stephenson which can be enjoyed by adults and children alike. It follows the song thrush as she looks for somewhere new to live after her home is destroyed by a bulldozer. Along the way she meets Stanley the hedgehog, two sparrows called Paul and Sonja, the Major who tries to help, but she struggles to find her perfect home. Until… at last she discovers it and it couldn’t be more perfect.

A sweet kid’s book I’d recommend for nature lovers of all ages. The illustrations are pencil sketches simply done but effective.

My rating 4 stars

Author Bio

Living in the English countryside I already had a couple of careers before I became an author. Having been a Family Lawyer and Family Mediator I became a District Judge in the year 2000 and officially retired from judging in early 2021.Sitting on complex family cases did not leave me much time for my interests of writing and sketching but when I had free-time I tried to visit interesting places .I hope my ancestors helped provide some inspiration as well. My father was a Holocaust survivor and my maternal grandfather a gynaecologist and composer. The people and countryside of Eastern England also are embedded in my psyche
