In the quiet of the morning, Alice notices something missing from the birdsong around her woodland home. One small voice has fallen silent. When she hears a faint, uneven call near the creek, curiosity and concern lead her into the Ash Grove, with bright Robin as her guide.
At the Singing Stream, Alice searches among mossy stones, tangled roots and rushing water. She soon discovers Little Wren trapped beneath a fallen branch as the stream rises around him. Eager to help, Alice must learn that courage is not always about rushing forward. Sometimes the wisest first step is to become still, listen carefully and understand what is truly needed.
With Robin's guidance and Grandad's patient help, Alice turns attention into action. Together they find a safe way to free Little Wren and return his clear song to the evening chorus. Alice comes home changed by the adventure, able to hear not only the loudest voices, but the smallest ones too.
Alice and the Singing Stream is a richly illustrated story for children aged four to eight about listening, patience, empathy and gentle courage. Set in the luminous Australian bush, it invites young readers to notice the natural world, attend to others and discover how careful listening can lead to kindness. Ideal for shared reading and thoughtful discussion at home, in classrooms and in libraries, this warm first adventure introduces Alice, her grandparents and the woodland friends of the Ash Grove.
