Ten Pretty Parrots

Ten Pretty Parrots, a picture storybook about ten pretty parros sitting in a tree and singing with glee, is a story children will want to hear again and again. Counting down from ten to zero, a different colored parrot flies away to a destination until there are no pretty parrots left in the tree. The words, which are literally interpreted by the pictures, are written in a musical, rhyming format and help the child develop oral and written word patterns. At the end of the story there is a Parrot Fun Page of activities related to the story. This extends the child’s learning, builds basic language skills, and creates bridges of communication between the reader and the listener.
