'This deceptively simple tale has a quiet power, and is illustrated with impressionistic images that capture the wild beauty and vitality of the black cockatoo.'

Ooooh - this is such a quietly powerful book. It was the first from the shortlist that I read, and 6 weeks later I am still thinking about it.
