When an entire neighbourhood is fearful of a pesky magpie, a young boy is determined to show them that there is more to this native bird than what they see. Everyone is afraid of the Baron of the Bay - except Reuben. Reuben believes the magpie, who swoops passers-by to protect his family, is just misunderstood. But that doesn't matter to the neighbours, who are determined to remove the bird from his home and family. This story about an iconic native Australian bird, with vibrant illustrations, will encourage readers to have understanding and compassion for animals. |
