(More customer reviews)This book gave me a crash course in parrots and helped me successfully re-tame a Citron Cockatoo named Sunshine. Using the steps in the book I accomplished what has been described by friends as "a miracle" and helped a dangerous biter become a sweet and affectionate friend. This book will help you communicate with the bird in your life and enable you to persuade the bird to let its natural guard down enough to experience the joy of human companionship. Wonderful book!

In addition, the text helps readers to find the right bird so problems can be sidestepped altogether, and it explains which birds not to consider and why.My Parrot, My Friend shows how parrots grow and develop, and how behavioral problems can start. The book explains behavioral modification, how it works, and how to apply it in specific situations. Case studies and an examination of pertinent issues add considerable interest to the text. These and other special features make this one of the most indispensable reference books you will ever use.My Parrot, My Friend is the first book to approach the subject in such depth for the lay reader. It will make a significant difference in how pet owners view and relate to their birds and will point the way to happy endings where once there were none.
