Media Reviews

Scintillating ... a story that may seem light and breezy at first, but draws you in to an amazing magical plot that bites deep, particularly if you're like us - and a lot like Finch.
Utterly brilliant ... we'll be hunting out more from Maudie very soon.

A book all about the importance of dreams and being true to yourself, BIRD GIRL is an exciting and unexpected story! ... The relationship between Finch and her grandmother is beautifully portrayed - its warmth and energy are delightful. Finch shows great courage and determination when her friends are at risk and learns a lot about herself along the way. An enjoyable read aloud story, offering plenty to discuss. * North Somerset Teachers' Book Award *
