The Water Vole Plumbers

Barnaby Quill

A drip turns into a flood, and suddenly every lily pad in the marsh is wobbling. Bumble the water vole grabs his wrench, but fixing pipes means outsmarting a grumpy moorhen, surviving a mud slide, and finding one tiny missing washer before sundown. This is a cozy animal adventure for listeners ages five to eight who like tools, teamwork, and soggy surprises. Sadie Bracken reads with a warm, busy energy, giving each vole a distinct voice and making the drips and splashes feel close enough to touch. Good for car rides or quiet afternoons. Seven chapters, about an hour total.
