Publisher's Synopsis

Join one tiny bird on a hilarious adventure to save his sister - and his country!

An action-packed tale of courage, adventure and a smattering of bird poo, from the bestselling children's author of Toto the Ninja Cat, Dermot O'Leary, with glorious illustrations throughout by Claire Powell.


Royal Bird Force recruit Linus can't wait for his big adventure. He's out to prove that swifts can be just a brave as falcons, with a combination of teamwork, talons and of course poo!

But with his sister missing and rumours of a spy amongst their ranks, can Linus become the hero he dreams of?

Featuring courageous loop-the-loops, top-secret plans and a smattering of bird poo, this heroic tail will keep young readers entertained and giggling from start to finish.

"A wonderful, heartwarming read that captures the feel of camaraderie" Parent of a reader aged 8 (Toppsta)

"I loved this book about Linus who is a very brave tiny bird... [it] is very exciting and made me laugh at the poop bits." Reader aged 7 (Toppsta)
