Summary

Flamboyant (of a person or bird, or their behavior) tending to attract attention because of their confidence, exuberance, and stylishness

What’s more, readers will also learn about birds, their groupings, and animal behavior within a fun, well-told story reminiscent of Daniel Pinkwater’s The Big Orange Splot.

Engaging wordplay makes a serious point about inclusion.” —Kirkus Reviews
