As someone who had a starling from 14 days old to 12 years old, I was hoping for a book about the most famous of his kind. And the title is misleading in that sense This book is not completely about Star, Mozart's starling, but also about the magnificent world of starlings, in the past and present, as the author also shares her stories of living at home with her own starling.
I recommend this to people who hate starlings because you're missing out on a gorgeous personality in these birds. But I also recommend it to people who love and possibly have loved individual starlings in their lives as well, because all the stories of Carmen made me weep with familiarity. They could have easily been about my little guy as well. This is an educational and fantastic ode to starlings everywhere.
