Notes:
Typical Chris McKimmie art work provides expressive, disconnected and bold ideas in visual and print mediums as a young boy expresses his desire to own a pet parrot. This is explored through a range of other (not always appropriate) animals and caring regimes until the end pages when he comes to an important realisation about keeping birds caged.
