Chapter 1.

Real in Rio

In Rio as it was a beautiful day all of the birds of the Rio rainforest were singing happily.

[Real in Rio]

All the birds of a feather

Do what we love most of all

We are the best at rhythm and laughter

That's why we love Carnival!

Call so clear we can sing to

Sun and nature's big moon

Dance to the music Passion and Love

Show us the best you can do!

In a hole in a tree a sleeping baby Spix's Macaw woke up by the sound of the song and began dancing to the song.

Everyone here is on fire

Get up and join in the fun

Dance with a stranger

Romance and danger

Magic can happen

For real in Rio

In Rio

All by itself

You can't see it coming

You can't find it

Anywhere else!

It's real in Rio

And know something else

You can't feel it happening

You can't feel it all by yourself!

Suddenly a net trapped two parrots causing the baby hatchling to quiver with fright. As more traps caged more Rio birds, the fleeing birds caused the baby hatchling to fall from it's nest in the tree and fall to the ground. A huge cage trapped the poor Macraw in a cage and ended up in a cargo plane.

As the Cargo plane took off into the sky, a Rio travel poster went flying from the plane and flew across the Atlantic Ocean and landed on a small island where a Red bird named Red was minding his own business when the Rio travel poster landed beside him, he saw it, he pick it up and it read:

RIO DE JANEIRO BRAZIL

He became very excited and quickly rushed off to find the others. Red found Chuck, the Blues, Matilda, Hal, Bomb, Bubbles, Stella and Terence were on the beach of the small island and they had nothing to do.

"Hey guys!" Red shouted running towards them, "Look what I found that will stop us from being bored."

Chuck, the Blues, Matilda, Hal, Bomb, Bubbles, Stella and even Terence all took a look at the Rio travel poster and got very excited and then Chuck said:

"Rio sounds like a great place to visit let's go there!"

"But wait," said Matilda, "How are we going to get there?"

"Simple," said Red, "We hide ourselves inside a crate and that crate that has us inside will be loaded onto a ship that will be heading Rio."

Thinking it was a good idea the Flock went off to find a crate, so their plan could be put into action. Meanwhile the baby Macraw had been put in a box and that box had been left in the street and that box was found by a little girl named Linda, the Macraw was a bit frightened.

"It's okay," said Linda, "It's okay. I'll take care of you."
