Papagayo the parrot spends his days soaring through the skies and
playing in the jungle. His raucous cries disturb the sleeping night
creatures, who don't have any interest in Papagayo's games. But
when the ferocious moon-dog appears in the night sky and, bite by
bite, begins to devour the moon, the terrified night creatures are
helpless. Only Papagayo knows how to save the moon, and the night
creatures learn that Papagayo is a good friend to have - even if he
is a bit NOISY.
An internationally known author and illustrator, Gerald
McDermott has created numerous books and animated films for
children. His rare ability to evoke the power of myth through
simple language and brilliant art has earned him many honors,
including a Caldecott Medal for "Arrow to the Sun" and a Caldecot
Honor for "Anansi the Spider." An original tale, "Papagayo the
Mischief Maker" features a traditional trickster hero of the Amazon
rain forest.
