Summary
Based on the true story of the childhood of London Zoo's head keeper, Mick Carman. When Mick rescues an injured baby jackdaw, so begins a special bond between a nature-loving boy and his pet bird. When Mick rescues an injured baby jackdaw in the park, little does he know that the bird is about to change his childhood for ever. Jacko soon recovers, and Mick teaches him how to fly. It's not long before Jacko becomes a beloved member of the community, amusing the punters in the family pub and guiding the trains into the station. As Jacko's adventures gain greater fame, Mick has to face whether he can ever bear to say goodbye to his beloved pet jackdaw...
