That Bird Can Draw!

Grandad has a new pet bird and - wow! - that bird can DRAW. His granddaughter loves to draw too, but her art just can't compare. Can that talented bird find a way to convince her that we're all great artists in our own way, and that the most important thing is doing what makes us happy?

Children will fall in love with adorable Grandad, his passionate and creative granddaughter and the cute and enigmatic pet bird Vera in this hilarious story.

Very funny and touching story about creativity and not comparing yourself to others.

Helps children celebrate their own unique talents and shows the importance of doing what we love.

Opens up discussions about how friendship and collaboration can make your favourite activities even more fun!
