Sweaters for Furby the Birb

When a rare spinal cord injury shattered Robin Taylor's body and sense of purpose, she didn't know if life would ever feel whole again. Once a passionate teacher, now homebound and in constant pain, Robin struggled to find meaning, until a loud, feathered force of nature landed in her lap. His name, Furby the Birb.

In Sweaters for Furby the Birb, Robin shares her raw, funny, and deeply moving journey of survival, healing, and the unexpected joy found within a mischievous umbrella cockatoo. From chewed-up sweaters to the steady rebuilding of hope, this memoir is a celebration of resilience, love, and the unbreakable bond between a woman and her bird.

With honesty, humor, and heart, Robin invites readers into a life forever changed by cauda equina syndrome and beautifully reshaped by a parrot with an opinion. Whether you're living with chronic illness, caring for someone who is, or just in need of a story that reminds you healing is possible in the most surprising ways, Sweaters for Furby the Birb will stay with you long after the final flap.
