Parrots make a wonderful alternative to the traditional pet. They’re as loving, intelligent, companionable, and entertaining as a cat or a dog but they surpass them by far in many other ways. They don’t require walks around the block, they’re perfect for apartment living, most have long life spans, and they’re full of personality. Besides, when was the last time you saw a vibrant blue cat or had a conversation with a talking dog?
Whether you are just thinking about buying a parrot or you’ve had parrots for years, Parrots for Dummies is full of helpful information about how to be the best parrot guardian you can be. Parrots for Dummies is packed full of useful tips, hints, reminders, and warnings about everything related to parrots and their care, including:

Brennen T. Dyer Said: I like the pictures, everthing else is okay. ( Aug. 10th 2010 )
It's definitely a beginner parrot owner's book but for someone that wants to learn more about parrots than just the basics, than this book (along with every other parrot) should not be the only book you purchase or use as a reference. There will always be new information discovered.
Thomas C. Spaulding Said: Excellent book ( Jul. 4th 2010 )

This book provided me with what I expected--good information about parrots. It started out with more information than it finsihed with (wish it had provided the same throughout) but I am overall satisfied.
