I could barely stop reading this book to go get my spouse at the airport. I finished it in the hotel while he was napping and the effect this book had on me was profound. The way Marguerite writes is so easy to read, it's like you are there, right beside her and you can't help but fall in love with her birds as much as her. Her love for her pets oozes through her words. I have a lutino cockatiel myself, with much of the personality traits of your Sugar Franklin. THANK YOU Marguerite, for writing this lovely book. I highly recommend it to anyone, parrot lover/owner or not. Toni
