Wow *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2015* I just finished reading this book aloud over lunch to my kids (six of them, ages 13 to 2) and I would say that it was a hit, overall. As you might expect with that age range, there were various degrees of "getting it" amongst the kids! However, we have also watched a DVD series called *Last Chance to See* that originally introduced us to the Kakapo, so that helped.Pros: fantastic photos! Wow! The text is enthusiastic, beautifully descriptive and has some nicely placed tongue-in-cheek parts. I was particularly interested in the sidebar piece on the original New Zealand conservationist, Richard Henry, and have assigned my 13yo the work of doing a report on him...seems like a great story waiting to be written by someone.Cons: Perhaps I was looking (personally) for some bits of more adult 'depth' to the writing and that would have been out of place for the overall work and it's anticipated audience; I'm not sure. I was greatly saddened by the unspoken but clear ENORMOUS amounts of money spent on each Kakapo alive. I would not want any species to go extinct, but - ouch! - so much on this bird species. However super-cool they are, they do not have the value of human life. Sometimes it's hard to get the right balance. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful! *by R***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2022* This is the second time I've purchased this book having lost my entire library to theft by an abusive alcoholic. It's one of the first I'm replacing and as wonderful as I remember. Special Thanks to the seller for careful shipping. Highly recommended to every age of reader who loves birds. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You'll Fall In Love *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2013* Kakapo Rescue: Saving the World's Strangest Parrot should have been sub-titled Saving the World's Most Endearing parrot. They are so cute, fascinating, and lovable. And endangered. As of the publication date, there were 93 left - all on one island, Codfish Island, south of New Zealand. The book, from Scientists in the Field, is the story of the people trying to save the Kakapo and the fascinating facts we are learning about this bird and the other unusual inhabitants on Codfish Island. All tween readers (and adults) will love this story and want to volunteer to camp out on Codfish Island to be a nest-minder. The beautiful photos will hold the attention of even the most reluctant reader and all readers will be crossing their fingers for a happy ending for the eggs of Rakiura and Cyndy (only one ends happily). All readers will fall in love with Sirocco the kitten-like old Kakapo who wants, and desperately tries, to get human companionship. Hopefully, all readers will have a better understanding of how fragile our Eco-system is. A great read for 10-14 year old who think they don't like non-fiction or science books. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/34627389-kakapo-rescue-saving-the-worlds-strangest-parrot-scientists-in-field](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/34627389-kakapo-rescue-saving-the-worlds-strangest-parrot-scientists-in-field) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
