The story refl ects an insight into nature and can be used as a springboard for group discussion." -Vonita White, Educational Consultant "Someday I hope to have the patience and wisdom of Penny Pigeon. She's a wonderful role model, not only for her little chicks, but also for the children and parents who will read her story." -Susan Ellingburg, writer for Women of Faith/The Revolve Tour, Crosswalk.com columnist
