Petunia Paris's Parrot

PETUNIA PARIS’S PARROT


Author: Katie Haworth · Illustrator: Jo Williamson

Petunia Paris has everything she could possibly want - apart from a TALKING parrot!

Description

Petunia Paris has everything she could possibly want, from a swimming pool to a bicycle with its very own chauffeur.

When she requests a parrot for her fifth birthday, a parrot is what she gets. The problem is, Petunia Paris’s parrot doesn’t do what Petunia Paris wants it to do . . .

A hilarious story with a moral lesson brought to life with classic and witty illustrations by Jo Williamson.
