Pinduli - Paperback

by Janell Cannon (Author), Janell Cannon (Illustrator)

"Cannon fans will lap it up." --Kirkus Reviews 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. But then a case of mistaken identity lets her show the creatures of the African savanna how a few tiny words can create something enormous. From the creator of the best-selling Stellaluna comes this triumphant story about self-image, self-acceptance, and treating others with respect. Includes notes about hyenas and other animals of the African savanna.
