The Wren Window Cleaners

Barnaby Quill

A tiny bird lands on your windowsill, ties a rag to its feet, and starts polishing the glass. Before you can blink, half a dozen wrens are sliding down your drainpipe with squeegees in their beaks. Barnaby Quill's gentle chapter book follows a fledgling window-washing business run by birds who bicker, botch jobs, and eventually figure things out together. Best for ages 5 to 8 who like talking animals and small adventures with mild peril. Sadie Bracken reads with a light, bustling energy, giving each wren a distinct chirp of personality without ever shouting over the story.
