Rosa's Parrot

32 pp. | Whispering | February, 1999 | Trade ISBN 1-58089-011-3 $$15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Kim Howard. Pico the parrot sometimes helps his owner Rosa, who is hard of hearing, but he isn't above using her partial deafness to pull a prank. Rosa, however, loves him despite his naughtiness. The Spanish names and the brilliantly colored illustrations suggest a tropical Latin American setting. Some pages require extra scrutiny, because the objects aren't always immediately distinguishable from the background.
