Jude and Lauren

“But how did you ever learn to talk if you live in the forest?” asked Lauren.
“Well, Lauren,” Shubi explained, “I once had a little girl just like you. Her name was Alyssa, and I learned to talk from her.”
Lauren asked, “What happened? Are you lost too?”
“No I am not lost, Lauren,” Shubi told her. “I just do not have a human family now. My little girl grew up and moved away, so I decided to move out on my own.
I met my friends Tanner and Cody and they are my family now. But don’t worry; I will help you get back home to your family. Just stick with me and I will keep you safe. I am going to go talk to your brother now.”




Shubi flew to the little boy to talk to him. “Hi Jude,” Shubi said, as he landed on the top of his hat.
It took Jude a minute to realize that a bird was talking to him. “Wow!” Jude said with excitement. “Where did you come from?”
“My name is Shubi. Your sister told me that you two are lost. I’m going to help you get back home.”
“How are you going to do that?” Jude asked. “And, why am I talking to a bird? I must be dreaming.” Jude mumbled.
Shubi replied, “No, Jude, you are not dreaming. I am a real, talking bird. I can help you get home by finding help and telling them where you are. That’s why they call me The Amazing Shubi Bird.”
