A heartwarming, beautifully illustrated rhyming picture book about finding friendship in spite of our differences and celebrating the unique gifts we each have to offer. 

Sorry the cockatoo is different from the other birds in the forest. His special gift allows him to perceive the world in vivid colors, while others can only see in black and white and gray. His vibrant world can be overwhelming for him to navigate, and he ends up apologizing-a lot! Fed up with his unusual and annoying behavior, his peers subsequently reject him, missing out on the unique perspective he has to offer. Sorry wonders if he'll ever have a friend, until one kind, curious bird comes along and asks to see Sorry's world through his eyes. From this shared understanding, a friendship is forged, and two lives are forever changed. 

As Sorry and his new friend discover the joys of new connections and perspectives, young readers will understand that we are each created perfectly-just as we are-and no-one should ever have to apologize for simply being themselves.
