Title:    What Happened to Willie?


Author: Virginia Dixon   Illustrator: Tim Thomas

 

            Eastern Brown Pelican once almost disappeared due to the use of DDT. Their numbers have now increased  but other disturbances threaten their habitat and their lives.

 

            Willie is a brown pelican who gets caught up in discarded fishing line. A little boy, beach combing, finds poor Willie. He dresses her wounds and removes the line. He prays that Willie will survive.  His family hand feeds the pelican until she regains her strength. Although Willie would never fly again, she did survive thanks to the daily feedings of the family.

 

Written in rhyming verse, Willies story moves along rhythmically.

 

            What happened to Willie, you wanted to know?

            It happened one spring time and not long ago.

 

Children love rhyme and happy upbeat stories. Willie will make a hit with your children and grandchildren, while teaching a valuable lesson.

 

The illustrations are very colorful and extremely appealing to youngsters. Based on a true story, Willie is rescued and rehabilitated by a small boy who lives in northwest Florida. The author hopes to enlighten children to the plight of seabirds and to warn fishermen that discarding line is very dangerous. Children ages 5-10 will enjoy this book and teachers would find it a valuable teaching tool. Highly recommended by reviewer: Shirley Roe, Allbooks Review. www.allbookreviews.com

 

            Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to: The Friends of Camp Helen.
