Crazy Bird Stories: Weird Whacky Birds described with Rhyming Words Book 3

Have you heard of the crazy bird known as the Charming Chat, who sat on a doormat with a fat cat in a hat?

Crazy Bird Stories tells of the Charming Chat, along with eleven other native Australian birds that can be found around the Mackay district of North Central Queensland. These poems introduce the birds to children and use rhyming words in short stanzas to cell imaginary stories of very strange bird behavior. There’s the Cranky Coot who plays the flute in a striped suit, and the Graffiti Goshawk, who attached chalk to a grass stalk and wrote on a sidewalk. With such a wide range of bizarre behaviors, these verses invite young readers to let their imaginations run free.

Fanciful and informative, this collection of children’s poetry depicts Australian birds involved in unusual and unbirdlike activities.
