Harry's Mad by Dick King-Smith
Having a parrot foisted upon him, all the way from America, isn't Harry's idea of a decent legacy. He'd been dreaming of untold riches and then all he'd got was this boring old parrot. But when the parrot, Mad, starts speaking Harry discovers that he is an ace at board games and crosswords.
Dick King-Smith served in the Grenadier Guards during the Second World War, and afterwards spent twenty years as a farmer in Gloucestershire, the county of his birth. Many of his stories are inspired by his farming experiences. He wrote a great number of children's books, including The Sheep-Pig (winner of the Guardian Award and filmed as Babe), Harry's Mad, The Hodgeheg, Martin's Mice, The Invisible Dog, The Queen's Nose and The Crowstarver. At the British Book Awards in 1991 he was voted Children's Author of the Year. In 2009 he was made OBE for services to children's literature. Dick King-Smith died in 2011 at the age of eighty-eight.
