Peter’s father liked to look for birds. Every time he saw one he had not seen before, he liked to check it with his binoculars, take a photo, and write down its name in his bird book. One day, Peter’s father showed him a picture of a big black bird with a yellow tail, and said, “This is a yellow-tailed black cockatoo; I have not seen one before in the wild, but I hear there is a pair down by the lake. How would you like to come with me today to look for the yellow-tailed black cockatoo?”

A crucial lesson is delivered in this gentle tale about the importance of not letting strangers into school - even if that stranger is just a furry puppy! Author Becky Coyle learned firsthand how a child's trusting innocence can put them in danger in her role as an elementary school resource officer, and she was inspired to create this School Safety series to explain school safety to young children in a fun and engaging way.

It all started with the school rabbit. Snowflake is the school rabbit, and Snowflake is trouble. At least that's what Tommy thinks, and when Snowflake is unexpectedly left for him to look after and everything starts to go wrong, it looks like Tommy might be right. Even if he is getting more pocket money for feeding it and might be able to afford a new bike after all. And with a sick sister left in bed, a snobby actor left with suspiciously damp trousers, and no rabbit anywhere to be seen, Tommy can see his hopes of a new bike disappearing as fast as Snowflake.

A touching look at the joys and the sorrows that come with pet ownership. See how a white rabbit won at a carnival affects the lives of people and even animals around her, and decide if the lessons of loss at a beloved pet's passing are worth the lessons of love they can bring.
