AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Phoebe is small, grey, and ordinary - very ordinary. "I want to get noticed!" she declares.

'Zelda is glamorous, talented and famous - and she runs the most popular beauty salon in the forest. And she′s only too happy to help Phoebe become the bird she′s always wanted to be. First a little feather headdress, then wing extensions - until Phoebe is transformed into a Diva.

'She looks gorgeous - but when she tries to take off, surprises are in store for them both!' (From the publisher's website.)
