Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 This is a cute story, did you ever watch a DVD called ie ( It is about a talking Parrot)? This story reminded me of this DVD. It is quite a amazing story and it was well written, like the 6 lives of a parrot. In fact when we watched it it was with our children when they were very young like 2nd and 3rd grade, they thought the parrot really could speak with humans, and when we watched it recently my kids then realized the parrot really didn't do the speaking it was the voice of one of the actors, because they took the time to see the credentials, and watch what parts of the film was deleted. We never told them that the parrot could not speak. Thanks for such adorable stories and humor you bring our group!
