I Need a Parrot

Chris McKimmie

Winner of the CBCA Picture Book of the Year 2020

A book about wanting and needing what a child wants and what a wild bird needs.  

Have you ever not just wanted something, but wanted it so much that you NEED it? The main character in I Need a Parrot wants this pet so much that he attempts to persuade the unseen figure that he should get one.
