Every garden needs a song. But what happens when singing is forbidden?Rube the robin has always led The Songbird Choir. But when Flint and his gang arrive searching for buried treasure, they tear up the garden, scatter the singers, and make one thing brutally clear: no singing allowed.Forced to flee with his battered choir, Rube faces the dangerous Farmlands, a hungry fox, and a devastating betrayal. Worse still, Blanche—the tuneless cuckoo chick he once rejected—has vanished into the storm. Now Rube must learn to listen, rescue a friend, and unite his broken choir before spring is lost forever.A soaring tale about finding your voice, choosing your family, and learning that harmony isn't about sounding the same—it's about singing together.
