But living in a cramped condo with her mom and siblings means she's unhappily pet-free. Then her Uncle Eli, a professor and scientist, asks Arden to look after Ludwig, his African Grey parrot, while he's away on sabbatical in Guinea. A little afraid of the bird, Arden reluctantly agrees to prove that she can handle pet ownership.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBut when Ludwig goes beyond his usual sounds and imitations to spout numbers and words that seem way too complex for a parrot, Arden wonders if there's more to this bird than meets the eye. As they get to know each other, Arden realizes Ludwig is not only super smart, he's also fiercely loyal, helping her with everything from her school presentation to her bully problems, and her pursuit of a spot on the Science Bowl team. Ludwig may not be the pet Arden wanted, but he might turn out to be exactly the pet she needed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe epub edition of this title is fully accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoanne Levy\u003c\/strong\u003e is the award-winning author of a number of books for young people, including \u003cem\u003eDouble Trouble\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eFish Out of Water\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Book of Elsie\u003c\/em\u003e in the Orca Currents line and the middle-grade novels \u003cem\u003eThe Sun Will Come Out\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSmall Medium at Large\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eSorry For Your Loss\u003c\/em\u003e, which was nominated for the Governor General's Literary Award and won the Canadian Jewish Literature Award.
