This backpack is really cool. It is very good quality. The stitching is tight and even, and the material of the bird is soft and plush. The beak stands out in a three dimensional way. The backpack I received does not have the yellow straps pictured, it has red straps. I actually prefer the red as it more true to the bird. The only thing is it is rather small. It is about 12 inches across and very flat. So not much can fit in it. However the "wow" factor makes up for it. My kid was like a rock star when he started school....all the other kids could not keep their hands off his bird backpack. Good purchase.
