Excerpt
Charlie wouldn’t tell a lie so he simply changed the subject. Lying isn’t cool and he wasn’t breaking his promise. NO WAY!
“You have awwwsome white feathers,” yipped Charlie. “How do you keep them so white?
“Thank you, it’s easy. We bathe in the Salt Marsh Pond every day,” said Izzy.
“How do you eat with your long curved bill?,” asked Bella.
You think Izzy Ibis’s beak looks funny? You should see Penny Pelican’s… Now that’s a sight,” piped in Effie the Snowy Egret.
Izzy honked a squeaky laugh. Izzy Ibis knew his bill was perfect for catching food. He could not imagine having a straight bill!
