Book Synopsis Alex the Parrot: No Ordinary Bird by : Stephanie Spinner
Download or read book Alex the Parrot: No Ordinary Bird written by Stephanie Spinner and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1977, graduate student Irene Pepperberg walked into a pet store and bought a year-old African grey parrot. Because she was going to study him, she decided to call him Alex--short for Avian Learning EXperiment. At that time, most scientists thought that the bigger the brain, the smarter the creature; they studied great apes and dolphins. African greys, with their walnut-sized "birdbrains," were pretty much ignored--until Alex. His intelligence surprised everyone, including Irene. He learned to count, add, and subtract; to recognize shapes, sizes, and colors; and to speak, and understand, hundreds of words. These were things no other animal could do. Alex wasn't supposed to have the brainpower to do them, either. But he did them anyway. Accompanied by Meilo So's stunning illustrations, Alex and Irene's story is one of groundbreaking discoveries about animal intelligence, hard work, and the loving bonds of a unique friendship.

Download or read book Alex & Me written by Irene Pepperberg and published by Scribe Publications. This book was released on 2013 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A moving tribute that beautifully evokes the struggles, the initial triumphs, the setbacks, the unexpected and often stunning achievemnets . . . [while] uncovering cognitive abilities in Alex that no one believed were possible.'Publishers WeeklyOn September 6, 2007, an African Grey parrot named Alex died prematurely at age thirty-one. His last words to his owner, Irene Pepperberg, were 'You be good. I love you'.What would normally be a quiet, very private event was, in Alex's case, headline news. Over the thirty years they had worked together, Alex and Irene had become famous - two pioneers who opened an unprecedented window into the hidden yet vast world of animal minds. Alex's brain was the size of a shelled walnut, and when Irene and Alex first met, birds were not believed to possess any potential for language, consciousness, or anything remotely comparable to human intelligence. Yet, over the years, Alex proved many things. He could add. He could sound out words. He understood concepts like bigger, smaller, more, fewer, and none. He was capable of thought and intention. Together, Alex and Irene uncovered a startling reality: We live in a world populated by thinking, conscious creatures.The fame that resulted was extraordinary. Yet there was a side to their relationship that never made the papers. They were emotionally connected to one another. They shared a deep bond far beyond science. Alex missed Irene when she was away. He was jealous when she paid attention to other parrots, or even people. He liked to show her who was boss. He loved to dance. He sometimes became bored by the repetition of his tests, and played jokes on her. Sometimes they sniped at each other. Yet nearly every day, they each said, 'I love you'.Alex and Irene stayed together through thick and thin - despite sneers from experts, extraordinary financial sacrifices, and a nomadic existence from one university to another. The story of their thirty-year adventure is equally a landmark of scientific achievement and of an unforgettable human-animal bond.

Book excerpt: Summary: In the magical realm of Mirabell, deep in its ethereal forests, Aladdin, a kid who can't get enough of learning and adventure, meets Zazu, a talking parrot. His life would never be the same after he made this finding. Aladdin and Zazu are fated to meet and go on an amazing adventure together, made possible by Zazu's amazing power to give Aladdin three wishes. This chance meeting is the start of an exciting, difficult, and ultimately rewarding story that shows how important friendship and the desire to learn are. Aladdin's first wish for bravery puts him in danger and tests his resolve, causing him to face his fears as he faces the problems and trials that lie ahead. Instead of just trying to get attention for himself, his bravery gives the peasants hope, which is the true meaning of heroism. Aladdin's second desire for knowledge makes his search for self-discovery and enlightenment more in-depth. This wish shows Aladdin how important it is to make choices that help the people around him and don't just focus on his own wants. Aladdin's last wish is the most important part of his transformation because it shows how much he has changed and how much he has learned from his friendship with Zazu. Aladdin proves that he is a real Mirabell hero by making a wish for the town as a whole, which makes everyone happy. People in the area respect and admire him for what he does, which comes from the bravery and knowledge he acquired while traveling. He is a great example of caring for others and being a leader. In Mirabell, the story of Aladdin and Zazu turns into a tale. It teaches important lessons about being brave, being honest, and how important friendship is. Aladdin and Zazu learn the depths of knowledge, the complexity of real bravery, and the immeasurable value of real connections on their journey. Their story moves everyone in Mirabell and reminds them of the amazing things that can happen when people have open hearts and real friendships. This story can be heard beyond the magical forest by anyone who is brave enough to dream and believe. Chapter 1: The Mysterious Woods Mirabell's beautiful forest was in the middle of a very large country, bordered by tall mountains and rolling hills. There was nothing else like this woods in the world. People said it was a magical place with strange animals, magical air, and trees that could tell stories from the past. In stories, Mirabell was seen as a secret gem, with the strongest natural heart beating with magic and mystery. Since he was a little boy who loved to explore and learn, Aladdin had always been interested in Mirabell's stories. He heard stories as a child about its secrets and the mythical animals that lived there. Stories about animals that could talk, plants that could heal any illness, and hidden treasures were always going through his thoughts. Aladdin knew that there was excitement outside the walls of his small village. The sun was shining through the trees, and Aladdin thought it was time to go into the strange forest. He wasn't going to give up on finding the riches it held. With a sense of adventure in his eyes, he left the well-worn paths behind and walked into the woods. As soon as Aladdin walked into the woods, he was struck by how beautiful Mirabell was. With their green and gold leaves that sparkled like they were covered in magic, the trees stood tall and proud. A peaceful stream whispered secrets from the forest in the distance, and birds singing and leaves moving were all around us. Aladdin was filled with awe. He had never seen something so bright and lovely. It looked like the forest was greeting him and telling him to come discover its secrets. While taking in the sights and sounds of Mirabell, he kept going. His eyes were wide with awe. He would stop every once in a while, to look at a really pretty flower or hear a bird's song that he had never heard before. As Aladdin walked through the forest, he realized that Mirabell was a magical place. He thought that the trees were watching him and telling him how to move through the forest sometimes. He saw birds with feathers of many colors, bunnies that hopped very quickly, and what looked like a deer shining softly in the evening. These were animals he had only read about in books. His heart was full of wonder and happiness. He knew that everyone was counting on him to be there. With each breath, he felt like he was joining the magic of the forest. Every moment brought new surprises, and each step brought him closer to Mirabell's heart. Aladdin was drawn to more than just the magic and beauty, though. You felt like you were going on an adventure and joining a world with endless possibilities. He and Mirabell became close because of the unknown promise of finding and the mysteries of the forest they both shared. Aladdin was sure that somewhere deep in Mirabell, something amazing was waiting for him. He thought it would become a part of his life forever. As the day turned into night, Aladdin found himself in a clearing in the woods. The setting sun was casting a bright light on the trees. In the open, a talking parrot was stuck behind a downed branch. Aladdin had been looking forward to this moment for a long time. He knew that being in the middle of Mirabell would be an amazing experience. Aladdin couldn't help but think that this was the start of a wonderful journey because the parrot's eyes were sparkling with a cheeky and smart intelligence. Aladdin was allowed to enter Mirabell's magical forest as long as he told her the forest's most important secret. Aladdin was ready to go on a journey with his talking parrot that would be full of magic, friendship, and adventures beyond his wildest dreams. The mysterious animals and whispered secrets in the Mirabell forest gave Aladdin the best gift of all: the chance to go on a journey and make a friend for life. Chapter 2: The First Meeting In the middle of the magical Mirabell Forest, Aladdin's journey took a sudden turn. The air was filled with magic, and every leaf seemed to tell a story from the past. The boy had seen more of the forest than anyone in the town would have because he was fully aware of everything around him. He was driven by his desire to find the secrets that were hidden in the forest's dark corners. And it was right in this shade, under the tall tree and in the middle of the natural chorus, that Aladdin's life was about to change in a big way. Aladdin heard a low, muffled sound as he walked through the thick bushes. There was a mix of words and squawks coming from right in front of him. He had never heard anything like it before. Aladdin sped up and brushed away the ferns and sticks in his way because he was interested and couldn't get enough of exploring. He found out about a vision that he will always remember. A bird was sitting under a big branch that had come off an old tree. But this bird wasn't like most birds. In the dappled sunshine, its feathers sparkled like jewels and showed a beautiful range of colors. The parrot was definitely not a normal animal from the forest; his eyes were filled with intelligence. This was Zazu the talking bird, but Aladdin still didn't know what his name was. Aladdin moved slowly toward the bird because he didn't want to scare it. What the parrot said to Aladdin shocked him: "Help me, young traveler. I am trapped under this branch and cannot free myself." He had no idea that he would find a bird that could talk. He had read about these magical people that lived in the Mirabell forest, but he never thought he would meet one in real life. There was no thought behind what Aladdin did. He pulled and pushed on the branch as hard as he could until it finally moved enough for Zazu to get away. When the parrot said, "thank you," it flailed its wings, making a rainbow of colors against the green background of the forest. This made Zazu feel better, and he said, "Thank you, kind soul." "You saved me from a very bad fate. My name is Zazu, and I am in your debt." Aladdin was too stressed out. He had not only saved a chatty bird, but he had also met someone new in the strangest place. The first time Aladdin and Zazu met was when the little boy introduced himself. This was the start of an amazing journey. With his bright feathers and even more lively attitude, Zazu was unlike anyone else Aladdin had ever met. Aladdin had never heard the smart and wise bird talk about magical places hidden in forests and faraway places. As they talked, Aladdin understood that Zazu wasn't just a talking parrot; he had magical powers that came from Mirabell's heart.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Douglas Adams and zoologist Mark Carwardine take off around the world in search of exotic, endangered creatures. Join them as they encounter the animal kingdom in its stunning beauty, astonishing variety, and imminent peril: the giant Komodo dragon of Indonesia, the helpless but loveable Kakapo of New Zealand, the blind river dolphins of China, the white rhinos of Zaire, the rare birds of Mauritius island in the Indian Ocean. Hilarious and poignant—as only Douglas Adams can be—Last Chance to See is an entertaining and arresting odyssey through the Earth’s magnificent wildlife galaxy. Praise for Last Chance to See “Lively, sharply satirical, brilliantly written . . . shows how human care can undo what human carelessness has wrought.”—The Atlantic “These authors don’t hesitate to present the alarming facts: More than 1,000 species of animals (and plants) become extinct every year. . . . Perhaps Adams and Carwardine, with their witty science, will help prevent such misadventures in the future.”—Boston Sunday Herald “Very funny and moving . . . The glimpses of rare fauna seem to have enlarged [Adams’s] thinking, enlivened his world; and so might the animals do for us all, if we were to help them live.”—The Washington Post Book World “[Adams] invites us to enter into a conspiracy of laughter and caring.”—Los Angeles Times “Amusing . . . thought-provoking . . . Its details on the heroic efforts being made to save these animals are inspirational.”—The New York Times Book Review
