In Morris Gleitzman’s latest book, readers follow an exciting adventure that explores environmental conservation through the eyes of Jay and his pet budgie, Clyde. Clyde is no stranger to puzzles, and loves completing jigsaws with Jay and his family. However, with Jay’s parents missing in Africa and large unexplained bird gatherings being reported across the globe, Clyde discovers that some puzzles aren’t so easily solved. Soon caught in a whirlwind of events, Clyde and Jay set off to solve what’s behind these mysteries, making new feathery friends and foes along the way.
Gleitzman’s master storytelling shines through in Tweet with an engaging narrative between two best friends that blends adventure, humour, and heart. At times, the book delves into sombre moments that touch on themes surrounding death and the cycle of life. However, Gleitzman is no stranger to tackling heavier topics and gently introduces them to readers, keeping the story light-hearted. This book is ideal for any child passionate about learning more about birds or the looming impacts of climate change. For readers aged 10+.
