Here at Casa Feathers n Beak, reading is a flock-wide tradition.
While some of us like to focus on the words on the page, while others of us prefer to focus on the crispiness of those pages, it is safe to say no book entering this household lacks for attention.
So Pearl thought it would be a great idea to combine his literary knowledge with his mommy’s typing skills to offer a “book o’ the week” review – just in time for your weekend reading list!
This week, the book is “The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill” by Mark Bittner.
Pearl’s review: This book is one of my favorites. The flock’s featherless caretaker clearly knows that in any flock, the ones with the feathers come first. He also provides ready accompaniment when they are in the mood to sing and there are always snacks available in the casa. Of course, if you want to read the best book that is all about parrots, this is the one I recommend!
His mommy’s review: I have lost count of the number of times I’ve read this book. It is just that good. Who wouldn’t love a story about a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to immerse yourself completely in the comings and goings of a flock of cute parrots! 5 stars! 🙂
Happy reading!
With love (& feathers),
Shannon & Pearl
Saw the author speak at a parrot conference and had him sign my copy. Funny guy and really sweet.
Oh how cool is that – I’ve never met him but sure would like to!
