PARROT PALACE by SUSANNE GERVAY
With
illustrator Sarah Tabassum, consultant Pooja Mathur,
Parrot Palace is
an open invitation from the heart to step into a multi-hued, multicultural,
inclusive world where difference is celebrated, tradition is valued, and the
language of love is spoken. It certainly does 'make the world a better place!'

Sweet as a jalebi and heartwarming as apple pie, Parrot
Palace is a moving and exciting story of childhood, friendship,
neighbourliness and forgiveness. Growing up, some of my best friends were
books, and how I wish I’d had a friend and a book like this, reflecting the
true, warm, beating heart of Australian multicultural diversity. Hari and
his friends will stay with you long after you’ve left Parrot Palace.
