This was my second reading, for my book group. Alex, the grey parrot, is able to learn concepts thought possible only for humans and "higher" primates. And he's a character. The book really enlarges your ideas about those with whom we share our planet. Irene Pepperberg's persistence pursuing her parrot project is also inspirational.
