About The Book
I am a boy, and this is Rayf, my bird.
Rayf is my friend.
On his first day of summer camp, a little boy arrives with his bird best friend perched proudly on his shoulder, but he soon discovers that he is different from everyone else—no one else has a bird. He hides Rayf away to try and fit in but it's hard to pretend to be someone else for long.
A beautiful story about finding the confidence to spread your wings and fly as your true self.

Raves and Reviews
“Chef and TV personality Hussain and illustrator Bailey team up once more, this time for the story of a boy and his parakeet … Bailey illustrates their relatively simple world with cheery colors, and everyone has big eyes, including some inanimate objects … [K]ids will relate to this straightforward tale—a clear metaphor for learning to embrace one’s differences ….”
