A fun and inclusive mystery for kids aged 5+

“We love that this book combines humour, action and adventure, not to mention the brilliant characters and talking animals! ”
~Sarah
Callie Major does not like wearing her new hearing aids AT ALL. But when she meets abandoned Mynah bird Bo, she realises that her ‘slugs’ mean she can communicate with him!
Together the unlikely duo set off to catch a thief who has been causing trouble all over town. With high-speed chases, a very peckish bird and purple POO, this book is a super fun and wild adventure!
Karen Owen has been partially deaf since childhood, and wrote the character Callie to reflect who she wanted to be when she was younger – funny, clever and with a special gift to hear something that other people cannot!
The activity pack includes book club-style questions to ponder, facts about talking birds and a recipe for easy berry ice cream, alongside jokes and further reading recommendations. You'll also write your own limericks, create a bird silhouette painting and create your own detective agent identity!
Activity packs are a handy A5 size and printed on uncoated paper which is fully recyclable.
We dispatch orders Monday - Friday.

We are a monthly book subscription by post for children aged 5 to 14, focused on helping families discover new and different chapter books.
This title was sent to subscribers in the Parakeet reading group, aged roughly 5 to 8, who are emerging or newly independent readers. Many in this group prefer to listen to the books being read aloud by an adult.
