Amy believes 'Granny Wren' is so called because she is small and frail, like the bird.

But Granny was a Wren in World War I - risking all delivering messages on her trusty

Douglas motorcycle. So very brave and not frail at all.

To Amy, her Granny is now a hero. So why then is Amy's mother determined that

her daughter must stay well away from 'Granny Wren’ ?

Amy just has to find out...

Review from Lovereading...

This beautifully written historical fiction will draw readers into Granny Wren’s story, from first signing up, to training and making firm friends and then into the shock and horrors of war. The nature of her experiences are described frankly, they aren’t focused on in gory detail which means that the book may be read by slightly younger readers, but nor are they glossed over, the stark realities of sudden loss and warfare bluntly addressed. I think readers from around the age of 12 will both relate to Amy’s modern experience and teenage fractions with her mother, before being absorbed into Granny Wren’s tale. Although the storyline itself is fictional, this book is based on the real events in France in 1918 and so would appeal to historical fiction fans. WRENS: answering the call is a quick, action packed read that will leave readers eagerly waiting for the second part of Granny Wren’s story.
