Books with title The Gray Parrot

Gary the parrot lives a happy life in the Costa Rican rainforest with his wife Annie and two kids. But one day everything changes. During a rainstorm, Gary is kidnapped by poachers and brought to New York City. Alone and scared, Gary finds himself trapped in a cage in one of the poacher's apartments. There he meets pigeons, Leo and Daisy, who agree to help Gary escape. But before they can free him, Gary is taken to a pet shop where his bright feathers and talkative ways become the store's main attraction. Just when all hope of Gary returning home to his family seems lost, Leo and Daisy come to the rescue. With the help of some friendly seagulls, Gary and the rest of the birds trapped in the pet store are freed and fly to their homes. Gary then reunites with his family, and all is well once again.

Early in life, little Barney developed a passion for playing baseball, but his young body would not cooperate. Nevertheless, he kept chasing his dream, following the Washington Senators on the radio and in the newspapers during their years playing at Griffith Stadium. In so doing, he discovers a new way to participate in the gameby becoming the Parrot Man, an active part, in his mind, of a major league team. But that was not enough. Something was missing. When given another chance at baseball glory, what does the Parrot Man do? A Baseball Story For parents of all ages and their children.
