The Adventures of Marty and Vicki

Book excerpt: The Adventures of Marty and Vicki: The Death of the Guacamole Tree shares the tale of two yellow-tailed black cockatoos, Marty and Vicki, who are displaced from their family and home because of a bushfire. Once living on a guacamole farm at Yarrahapinni Mountain and now in flight, the two birds show a resilience to life. They escape into a world of unknowns. Join them as they endeavour to re-establish themselves, seeking help from old friends and making new friends along the way. Meet Counselling Crab, the Irregular Rectangular Workers, the Wild Chickens at Paddy’s Rest Stop, and plenty more! Each chapter brings them closer together and closer to the question: How will Marty and Vicki decide to build a new home and family with only Bubbling Beach and a few friends to help?
