From the Back Cover

Have you ever made a magical wish upon a shooting star?

Was it for a pet ostrich?

Follow the adventure and humor as a spunky child wishes for a pet ostrich of her very own.  Will it be everything she hopes for – or a big feathery mistake?  This delightful, rhyming tale about the fastest bird in the world has a surprise ending that is sure to bring a smile.

A bonus educational section is included to help children who are already ostrich fans – and those who aren’t fans yet!

Humor and laughter support creativity.  Giving a child a BRAIN BREAK with laughter helps with social skills and improves cognitive development. 

Inspired by the books of Dr. Seuss, this book was created to encourage emergent readers, spark a child's imagination, and will teach children how language works. Reading books that rhyme, help children make a prediction of words.
