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..
