Rousing fun adventures of a posh parrot
Freddie Parrott III and his butler Peccary return in this rousing good sequel for four more short adventures. Freddie is in charge of having fun and getting into tricky situations, and Peccary is in charge of everything else.
These stories start as maybe everyday scenarios – visiting the neighbors, or settling in for bed – and then something happens that makes them totally wild and unexpected. My favorite part is the characters themselves – everything is told from Freddie’s perspective, and his language is quintessentially proper, while also being a little absurd. Although, his choice of words may be a little advanced for young readers, so be prepared to explain a new word or two. Although, the many sketches throughout need no explanation.
Each story stands alone, and new readers can jump straight into this book.
