Today a guy spent an hour asking me my name.

I kept telling him.

"Brock," I said. "Brock! Brock! BROCK!"

He looked very disappointed.

I guess he wanted it to be something else.

Like Poly.

Join a brilliant, but stubborn, parrot as he endures the banality of the pet store before being purchased by an equally insufferable young man. But while things between parrot and owner get off to a rocky start, the delights of having a pet (or human) bring them both around in the end. This book from the award-winning author/illustrator team Devin Scillian and Tim Bowers of the Memoirs series is sure to please fans new and old.
