P for Parrot- Story of Papita
P for Parrot- Story of Papita- The power of speech
Nano Tale for Kids With Alphabet P
In one of the houses in the village of Prashantipur lived a colorful parrot named Papita. One day, Papita was flying up alone in the sky and was separated from her family because she forgot the way back home. She was scared and sat on one of the branches of a tree of Prashantipur and crying. A farmer was returning home from the fields and noticed the crying parrot. He felt so sad for the bird and took Papita home for care and food.
There was a little girl named Papiya at the farmer’s house, her daughter. After meeting the parrot, Papiya felt so connected with it that she gave her the name Papita, matching her name. From that day, Papita got a name, a home, and the love of a family.
Papita used to roam freely in the house and mingle with the other birds of the village. Papiya’s mother and father were also Papita’s parents, and they took the best care of their Parrot baby. For Papiya, Papita was her best friend, and she used to talk a lot with Papita once she got back from school. After listening to the conversations between the family members, Papita started learning human language and even began beautifully communicating with the family.
Papita was no more an ordinary bird; she mastered the remarkable talent for mimicking human speech. For this talent, Papita was adored a lot by her family and often appreciated for her unique ability to mimic words and phrases.
Doing hard work in the fields, Papiya’s father managed to save some money for his daughter’s education and to buy some land. He kept a lumpsum of his monetary possessions at home after bank withdrawal. He needed to pay the seller of the land he wished to buy. The deal will get finalized in the next 2-3 days. So he needs to pay the seller. This news somehow reached the ears of the thief gang of the village. They planned to steal the money from Papiya’s house at midnight.
As Papita was part of the family, she never stayed in a cage. She used to sleep with the family in the same room on a chair. But that night, she heard the sound of footsteps near the house, and she alerted her ears. She flew near the window to peep outside and overheard the stealing plan of the thief gang in a whispering voice. She understood her family was in danger, and she needed to do something to protect her family.
As Papita mastered the skill of mimicry, now she mimicked the sound of the barking dog, loud and fierce. Hearing the unexpected noise of a dog barking, the thieves got scared. Talented Papita now mimicked the sound of her father (Papiya’s father)shouting for immediate help. The call was so loud that even the neighboring houses of the village could hear it and rushed towards Papita’s house to find out what went wrong.
Witnessing the approaching crowd, the thieves left their bags to save their lives by running faster. The villagers praised Papita and called her a superhero. They showered her with love and treats. Papita’s human family was also very proud of her, and Papiya held her in hand and kissed her forehead. Papita felt blessed to be a part of this family and to get so much love from the people surrounding her.
Papita’s ability to talk proves intelligence and a sense of responsibility are also there in birds and animals. The village learned that even the smallest creatures can make the biggest difference when they use their talents for good.

I loved reading this story, it is so touching and says so much in simple words. The graphics are also delightful, and I especially fell in love with the names of the characters.
So much has been communicated with such simplicity. The story is so heartwarming. I am sure the kids will remember the alphabet ‘P’ and Papita for a long time and master it with ease.
Wow, Samata! Your new blog post on ‘P for Parrot – Story of Papita – The power of speech’ is absolutely captivating! 🦜💬 I was completely drawn into Papita’s journey and the profound message you conveyed about the power of speech. Thank you for sharing such an inspiring story! Looking forward to reading more from you. Keep shining, my talented friend! ✨
Absolutely agree. Infact I feel animals are more responsible than human. They don’t unnecessarily destroy the environment. They don’t really hurt anyone unless and until its life threatening for them. Such a cute tale explained so well
Loved the “P for Parrot” story of Papita! Such a delightful and heartwarming tale. Thanks for sharing this charming story. 🦜🌟
What a great book! It’s lesson is commended for kids and it’s written with great interest for the good! Hope you write more of this kind of books. Appreciate you sharing this.
What a lovely lesson Samata. I watch the parrots drive away other birds in the park and I find their ability so fascinating. I am glad that we have such beautiful birds in our lives.
What a charming tale! “P for Parrot – Story of Papita” beautifully weaves the vibrant life of a parrot into a narrative that’s both engaging and educational.

Heartwarming tale of smart Papita, God bless her. So cute and yet so responsible. I’m not a pet person but this story warmed my heart.
What an inspirational tale from the talking Parrot, Papita. I always feel that humans are the most ungrateful species. Animals and birds are loyal and always protect their human owners. My dog is a best example for me.
Such a smart bird Papita is. I bet even a human couldn’t think on their toes like to save themselves and their family in such a situation. I liked how the family did not cage Papita and allowed her the freedom to choose to be a part of their family. We can learn so much from that gesture and the overall story. Great work, Samata
Im here again, reading it again and I absolutely adored reading about Papita’s adventures! Your storytelling brings the parrot’s personality to life so vividly.
Such a cute little story. Enjoyed this and saved it to narrate to some local kids.
Such a cute story. Kids are going to love it. A very smart parrot. Now I am going to go and read your other stories too.
Such a heart warming story! I love the typical Bengali nomenclature that you have used. PS My favourite bird is the macaw 🦜
A nice, heart-warming story, Samata. The same goes for humans too. We should use our talents to help others rather than harm them.
Such a cute story Samata… we used to read such stories in Tinkle and Amar Chitra Katha when we were kids.Your post made me go down memory lane😊
That was such a beautiful story for kids. I m sure children will be so interested in listening to such a story.
I loved reading this cute story of Papita and her bravery. She is so cute, intelligent, and adorable that anyone can keep her in their house. Write more such stories.
Love your fiction pieces, Samata. I recall your aloo baigan one. A lot of fun. This is a delightful one for kids. And the artwork perfectly complements the story as always.
Papita’s ability to mimic a dog’s bark to scare off thieves is both hilarious and genius! If I had a parrot like Papita, I’d be bragging about her all day long. She’s proof that animals can be incredibly smart and caring.
Such a beautiful story. This proves that love is not limited to a language or even species for that matter. Papita saved her family with her talent, alertness and concern. Bravo! A beautiful fictional piece.
The way you introduced the alphabet through the adorable character of Papita the parrot was both fun and educational. The story kept me smiling from start to finish. The message about using our talents to help others is spot on, even for us humans. Can’t wait to read more of your alphabet stories, Samata!
Wow, the parrot is smart enough to avert the mishap. Children are going to love this story:)
what a sweet story. i agree animals are smart and helpful.
I loved the usage of Papita and Papiya, similar words that are arousing the curiosity to learn and understand new words especially for kids. This story is ideal for kids and help them to understand core values of togetherness.
This story reminds me of one by Julia Donaldson where all the farm animals save the farmer from a theft. Nice one!
