We don’t always get Cooper’s photos right on the first shot*. Here are some pics that didn’t make the cut.




* Due to the photographer and through no fault of the model, of course.
This month’s book was given to us by Cooper’s friends, Kelle and John – A Pandemonium of Parrots and Other Animals by Hui Skipp.
Ever wonder what to call various groups of animals? A Pandemonium of Parrots will inform you what to call a collective of many animals, including lizards, camels, flamingos, tigers, and of course, parrots.
Here is Cooper on her favorite page. She loves the illustrations – especially the winking blue budgie. There is so much going on on each page, a poem about the featured animal, the sounds they make, and search and finds.
At the end of the book is a “Did you See?” page so the reader can take another look, as well as a Who’s Who page which gives facts about each animal. Cooper highly recommends this book to young readers who like to look and learn.
Thank you to Kelle and John for sending this fun picture book!
Here is Cooper posing with her “Cooper with Millet” portrait – a gift from Cooper’s friend Jan.

Is art imitating life or is life imitating art?
Thank you Jan (an Puck) for this delicious artwork. XOXO
