Back in 1934 nobody knew that Cookie, a young Major Mitchell’s cockatoo from Australia, would live into the next century. Nobody knew that Cookie would become a celebrity bird. Nobody knew what profound and rapid changes the world would experience. Sitting in his cage, and sometimes flying around a locked room, Cookie lived through changes of all kinds —Superman, TV, Adidas, kidney machines, space travel, mass prisons, iPhones, climate change, heroic deeds, and more.

Serious, yet also humorous, these free-verse poems examine the outside world through the eyes of a preening, self-centered caged bird who questions captivity, war, and natural catastrophe while marveling at events such as Sputnik, figure skating, and Sully’s landing of a damaged airplane in the Hudson River.

Cookie the Cockatoo: Everything Changes focuses on change. Changes in the world, changes in Cookie. Change as something whose direction must be examined.
