"Cockatoo. / Cockatoo, too? / Two cockatoos! / Two cockatoos, too? / Cockatoo tutus!" The words are spare, but the wordplay is plentiful as cockatoos meet, discover tutus, and encounter dancing toucans. The green foliage and generous white space in the watercolor spreads emphasize the birds' tropical plumage. Sharp observers will notice the visual hints of action and characters to come.
