Two 8-year-old girls make friends with an unusual bird. The meetings raise questions that are scientific and a bit philosophical. Their parents become involved through some comical encounters, and as families they explore the oddities further. In the meantime, the bird and its family learn how to get people to perform for their benefit. A mixture of serendipity, fun and nature, this story predicts what could possibly happen. Ideal for 6 to 10 year old children.
