Explore "Jimmy Crow" by Edith Francis Foster on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Grandma lives at Jack's [house]. She has a bird, too. Grandma's bird is a green [parrot]. The parrot's name is "Pepper." [Jack] loves [Grandma], but Jack's crow does not love Grandma's parrot.
Pepper can talk like a [man], mew like a [cat], bark like a [dog]. She can cry and laugh. When Jimmy says "Caw, caw!" Pepper says "C-a-w, c-a-w!" and then laughs. [Jimmy crow] doesn't like to be laughed at. Once he flew at Pepper, and pushed her off her [perch]. But Pepper scratched him with her [talons] and pulled out a tail-feather with her [beak]. Now Jimmy keeps away from her, unless he wants to steal her [crackers].
