Pinduli's mama has always told her that
she's the most beautiful hyena ever. But Dog, Lion, and Zebra
don't think so. Why else would they make her feel so rotten
about her big ears, her fuzzy mane, and her wiggly stripes?
Poor Pinduli just wants to disappear--and she tries everything
she can think of to make that happen. Yet nothing goes her
way. Nothing, that is, until a case of mistaken identity
lets her show the creatures of the African savanna how a
few tiny words--bad or good--can create something enormous.
Janell Cannon, the creator of the bestselling Stellaluna,
introduces yet another endearing character in this triumphant
story about self-image, self-acceptance, and treating others
with respect.
Includes notes about hyenas and other animals of the African
savanna.
