This story is absolutely delightful, filled with a "sweet" story about a parrot picnic! The communication is silly and made my kiddos laugh. The sentiment and lessons are rich and layered; the illustrations top notch. All personality types are represented and we see team work, creative foods (my kids really want to make pineapple cupcakes with kiwi cream icing!), and reconnection - something we all can look forward to following a pandemic. As with her other stories, Allison Sojka brings to life characters with fantastic personalities, pairs an adorable tale with lessons for learning, and keeps children engaged. Can't recommend it enough!
