"Sweet, rhyming text and attractive illustrations provide a gentle on-ramp to heavy subjects, and the macaws are as resplendent as they are endearing....A somber but ultimately optimistic admonition that will engage bird buffs and budding conservationists."--Booklist

Told in gentle rhyming verse, this beautiful non-fiction picture book follows the story of a flock of colorful macaws as they live their lives in the Amazon rainforest.

Through the voice of one of the macaws, we hear about the bounty of the rainforest, as well as the challenges they have faced - threatened by the destruction of their home through machinery and forest fires to make room for vast plantations. Still, there are some areas where the land is protected and they can live a life of freedom among the trees... perhaps in the future, humans will learn the true value of the forest once again?

Accompanying non-fiction pages at the end of the book include information on on endangered macaws, the importance of the rainforest, and the causes of deforestation, as well as what we can do to help.
