Book snapshot

This is the story of Michoux, the black parrot, an endemic bird of Seychelles, returning to its native habitat, a breathtaking garden called the Vallee de Mai. He left as an egg, hatched, and lived in London until its owner, John Patterson, decided that it was only right that Michoux live with his kind. On its first day, Michoux, with remarkable adaptability, made friends and embraced a new diet enjoyed by his kind in his new place in a tropical climate. There, he goes on adventures and plays peek-a-boo with predators.
