The Fairy Queen's Return - by Debbie Kelahan (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Sunny is a lively cockatiel. Chittermeister is a humdrum canary. When they unexpectedly meet Zarptaka, a mysterious golden bird, life becomes more exciting than they ever imagined. Sunny, Chittermeister, and their teen owner, Violet, find themselves setting off to strange new lands to help restore Zarptaka to the fairy kingdom she once ruled as Queen Zara.

But nothing is as easy as it seems. Sunny and his friends must first overcome unknown perils and confront beings of all kinds-kindly fairies, nasty hawks, dangerous scientists, a race of unpleasant gnome-like creatures, ruthless elves, and frightening witch lords. In the end, Sunny alone accepts the biggest challenge of his life. He must face the formidable elven king, Colegar, who is the fairy queen's answer to whether she gets her kingdom back, or loses it forever!
