Lucky the Lorikeet
$11.95
An educational children’s book – based on a true story – tells the story of Lucky, a parrot who is captured in the wild and eventually regains his freedom with the help of a young boy.
Inspired by real events that took place in Indonesia, this story is beautifully illustrated in a 32-page softcover book. What’s more, proceeds from the sale of this book benefit avian welfare, rescue, and conservation – to help birds like Lucky.
The story is also a perfect fit for a wider educational curriculum including the geography and culture of Indonesia, the natural history, behavior, and physical characteristics of parrots and tropical forest ecosystems, as well as real-life conservation efforts. .
Written by Monica Engebretson; illustrations by Melodee Strong. 36 pages, softbound, 10″ x 11″.
Lucky the Lorikeet is a joint project between Born Free USA and the Avian Welfare Coalition (AWC).
