About this listen

A fizzingly funny, heartfelt novel about a resourceful girl, her impractical mother and a kidnapping mystery

Some stories are about adventure.

Some are about heroes.

Some are about ducks.

This one is about all three.

Calla North and her mum, Elizabeth, live a life that’s far from normal. There are days when the power is cut off and Calla has to do her homework by candlelight; there are others when curious strangers want to talk to Elizabeth about her research on ducks.

When Elizabeth says yes to a once-in-a-lifetime trip to save a small brown duck, she sends Calla to the best place she knows: The School of the Good Sisters. Staffed by nuns whose preferred subjects include light aircraft maintenance, camouflage skills, and cake - lots of cake - Calla is about to discover her bravery, and to learn that when trouble comes, there’s no better back-up than a blessing of Nuns....

I love the story
Having read the story myself the story’s amazing but the narration is good but not great
Her voice is nice but is not particularly calming
There is also no way (unless you are reading along with the real book) to tell which is the footnotes and which is the real story

I hope this helps

Thank You 🦆
