"Poppy Ott and the Stuttering Parrot" by Leo Edwards is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Poppy Ott, a boy embroiled in a series of adventures involving a stuttering parrot and the quirky characters of his small town, Tutter. With hints of mystery and humor, the narrative invites readers into the lively escapades of Poppy and his new friends, touching on themes of friendship, curiosity, and the ups and downs of growing up. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Jerry Todd, who narrates the story alongside his friends, including the enigmatic new kid, Poppy. As the boys head out for a summer morning swim, they stumble upon Poppy's unconventional family, which includes his father, who fancies himself a detective. With the unfolding of Poppy's family life, Jerry’s curiosity leads him to wonder about the peculiar happenings surrounding them, especially when a stuttering parrot appears in the mix. The opening sets a whimsical tone filled with spirited dialogue and humor, establishing the foundation for a larger mystery regarding the black parrot that ties back to Poppy's father and their ranch-like existence.
