Help me find a book - storks/geese on roof in Holland?

I’m trying to remember a book that I read many years ago - I remember storks or geese on a roof possibly in Holland but anymore than that I’m lost so not even sure what the gist of the story was.
If anyone knows from that I’ll be amazed but hopeful for suggestions. Thank you.

Was it a set in the war?

Amazing, when thinking about the time setting, I suddenly remembered a school came into it and a little googling found it ‘The Wheel on the School’.
Now just need to read a copy and refresh my memory more.
Thank you Darkchocolate.

Glad to be of assistance; even if it wasn't the book I was thinking about.

Yes 'the wheel on the school'. It was for storks to nest in. I remember this book fondly.

It's by Meindert DeJong if that helps!

Yes we had it read to us at school! Really enjoyed it! Smile

I remember The Wheel on the School too - it must be about 50 years since I read it! Smile

I remember my primary 6 teacher back in 1978 reading it to us as a class book, the whole class lived it.

I’m pleased that I asked - great to hear others have lovely memories of it.
