Synopsis

Meet Trevor! He's no ordinary bird. In fact, if you peel back the novelty leaves, you'll discover he's completely naked! It's a well-kept secret that all birds are actually naked, but every morning they put on their feathery clothes and go about their day. Trevor doesn't want to conform with feathered society and refuses to wear his sparrow outfit, much to the horror of his family. In a quest to find his own unique look, Trevor crashes into a pile of sticky mud and colourful flowers. He ends up looking the best he ever has, inspiring the creatures around him to shed their own boring outfits!

Media Reviews
'As well as the concept, I loved the looks from the other birds and animals, as well as all the little captions that were on every page, which gave the other characters depth to their personality.' * Nayu's Reading Corner *
'This is a fun book - kids will love it, it's slapstick, there's a naked bird who has some rather funny moments, and a show of camaraderie in the end! ... It's the kind of story that is simple, but very entertaining.' * Bookapoet.co.uk *
Trevor the sparrow doesn't want to get dressed in his feathers.Instead, much to the shock and horror of his feathered relatives, he wants to stay naked. After trying to persuade Trevor that he should put on his sparrow costume, Trevor goes off in search of his own unique outfit, with interesting results. This fun story is brought to life by the characterful illustrations, drawn by award- winning illustrator, Rebecca Elliott. -- RACHEL NEWCOMBE * Baby London *
Trevor is no ordinary bird. If you fold back the leaf flaps, you will find he is completely...naked! 'Oh good gracious!' says the ladybird (and perhaps young readers). Starting with the fact that all young birds are born featherless and naked, this amusing story plays with this idea as Trevor is the only fledgling who insists on staying this way, much to the annoyance of his fellow creatures. However, Trevor finds it hard to do something birds take for granted-flying. Amusing antics unfold. Will Trevor find his feathers? Read on and find out! Lots of fun. -- Carolyn Boyd * The School Librarian *
