the secret diaries of
la pulcina piccola
Chapter 9
Pete, the craggy parrot, who has been my jailer these past few days, released me from the hold today and for the first time since the little Wet Hen went down, I could hop about on deck for air and exercise. It was wonderful to be out-of-doors again and to see so much more of the sea than is allowed by the little port hole below. I met the crew and Il Pollo del Mare, the Wishbone's famous captain. He is as handsome as I'd heard and far kinder than I thought he would be, quite charming really. I am invited to dine at his table tonight!
