Description
The blackbirds' song uplifts and restores in this captivating novella from one of the most exciting voices in children's fiction.
After a devastating car crash, Annie is unable to play her flute and retreats from the music she's always loved.
She exists in a world of angry silence - furious with her mum and furious she can't seem to play her beloved flute any more.
Then she meets Noah, who shows her the blackbirds' nest hidden in the scrubland near their flats. As their friendship grows, the blackbirds' glorious song reignites Annie's passion for music. But when tragedy strikes again, will her fragile progress be put at risk?
