I want to show that following Him is the best and happiest way to go.' Through her books, she wanted to increase the reader's faith.

It was good. I liked the dog part.

This book shows responsibility is an important thing. Having a pet is a big responsibility. Pets with their own mind and do whatever they want is a bigger responsibility. This book is very entertaining and shows the inside life of a parrot. I’d recommend this book to people who like pets and people who are trying to be responsive.

Didn’t even remember ever having this book until I dug into the back of my bookshelf. I believe it came as a freebie with one of my daughter’s book orders. I thought I’d read it just for fun. Definitely a child’s book. I’m guessing that a child would have given it a higher rating than I did. I did like the parrot.
