Who knew? "It's a well-kept secret that all birds are actually quite naked" under their feathers, which they slip into every day. Young sparrow Trevor has had it with conformity and sets off to find "his own outfit." Flaps conceal--and reveal--Trevor's smooth and pink "naked" form; Elliott capably teases out the situation's pathos as well as its comedy.
