Penelope's Journey Home

Beschreibung

Have you ever felt like you just didn't fit in? Have you ever thought you were the oddball? Feeling out of place in a whole new world, the newly hatched Penelope is forced to face circumstances that threaten to rob her of her true destiny. In Penelope's Journey, Susan Henderson crafts a children's tale featuring an ill-fated fowl who struggles with her odd-looking appearance. Delivered to the wrong mother by a rookie stork, Penelope is mistakenly given to Olga-an ostrich with underhanded intentions. Treated more like a nuisance than a daughter, Penelope tries her best to act just the way her "mom" expects. This poignant story takes the reader on a trip that tugs at the heartstrings, but is crowned with an encouraging message of life-changing truth.
