Bookroo's summary
Eugene's free cruise to Bermuda takes a turn when a shipwreck leaves him stranded on a deserted island. His only companion? A parrot with a broken wing. Initially dismissive, Eugene soon discovers the parrot's surprising usefulness in planning their escape. As they navigate survival and friendship, Eugene learns that sometimes the most unlikely allies can change everything. Will Eugene's newfound bond with his feathered friend lead to their rescue, or will they remain castaways forever?
From the publisher
When grumpy Eugene wins a free cruise to Bermuda, he thinks he knows just what to expect: a really nasty sunburn. But instead, after a shipwreck, he finds himself stranded on a tiny island with no one—except for a parrot with a busted wing. “Terrific,” says Eugene. “What good is a parrot?” It turns out a parrot is good for a lot, including planning a very elaborate escape. And when the castaways are rescued by a team of fishermen, it’s Eugene’s turn to be kind to his new friend.
