The dog ate it ...
People's tastes vary when it comes to reading. Some times they will imbibe fantasy and other times information. It seems animals have a taste for books too.
Quite often books are returned by shamefaced people. "The puppy got out and did this to the book ... you should have seen what it did to the lounge ... " Incidents similar to those in Marley and me by John Grogan.
This one is quite unique. Borrower alleged that a sulphur-crested cockatoo had been stalking him. Aforesaid bird gained entry to his premises and allegedly damaged a library book and radio. Borrower tried to fend feathered fiend off with a cushion.
Crestfallen cockatoo fled scene, no doubt still peckish. Library Officers are keen to apprehend this jailbird.
