      About This Book

      Four-year-old Arabel Jone's life is changed forever when her father, a taxi driver, brings home an injured bird he finds in the street. Arabel falls in love at first sight, and names the bird Mortimer. This wacky raven eats everything in sight, answers the telephone by squawking "Nevermore!" and causes chaos wherever he goes -- but Arabel loves her new feathered friend, and the pair soon find themselves involved in a series of adventures.
