High above the beautiful treetops of Puerto Rico, a brilliant flock of green parrots soars through the sky. For millions of years, these vibrant birds thrived on their island home, until habitat destruction and rapid development pushed them dangerously close to vanishing forever. By the 1960s, the once abundant Puerto Rican parrots were nearly extinct. Step into the inspiring true story of the dedicated scientists who launched the Puerto Rican Parrot Recovery Program to save these magnificent birds. As you follow the tireless efforts of conservationists working to protect the flock, you will also uncover the fascinating history of Puerto Rico itself, stretching from its earliest human settlers all the way to modern times. With striking collage artwork and engaging facts, this award winning journey shows you exactly how hard work and science can help a nearly lost species fly freely once again.
