About this product

Product Information

Penguin Bloom is an extraordinary true story of recovery, hope and courage as one injured bird and her human family learn to heal and celebrate life, featuring the gorgeous photography of Cameron Bloom and a captivating narrative by New York Times bestselling author of The Blue Day Book Bradley Trevor Greive. People around the world have fallen in love with Penguin the Magpie, a global social media sensation, and her adventures with her human family. But there is far more to Penguin's story than meets the eye. It all begins when Sam, Cameron Bloom's wife, suffers a near fatal fall that leaves her paralysed and deeply depressed. One of their three sons, reeling from the tragic accident, discovers an injured magpie chick abandoned after she had fallen from her nest. The boys name the bird Penguin, for her black-and-white plumage. As they nurse Penguin back to health, the incredible joy, playfulness and strength she exudes fortify the family and especially lift Sam's spirits. Penguin's resilience demonstrates that, however bleak things may seem, compassion, friendship and support can come from unexpected places ensuring there will always be better days ahead. This plucky little magpie reminds us all that, no matter how lost, fragile, or damaged we feel, accepting the love of others and loving them in return will help to make us whole. Winner of the ABIA Illustrated Book of the Year. The book is soon to be a major motion picture starring Naomi Watts, Andrew Lincoln, Jacki Weaver and Rachel House. A unique and remarkable insight into a family dealing with tragedy and finding their way through it with love, courage and hope - Naomi Watts

Wonders of nature
A friend loaned me this book and I loved it so much I bought my own copy. They are such an intelligent bird and they have been visiting our home for many years. We hand feed them small amounts of pet meat (recommended by a wild-life friend) but only in very small amounts as we don't want to make them dependent on humans. They respond to orders to wait their turn and the parents keep them under control -(there is a pecking order) and they are not allowed to forget it. If only we humans could be as good! It is a wonderful story and anyone loving nature as we do, would love every page. It is well written and illustrated and congratulations to all concerned for letting us enjoy such a lovely story. Thank you one and all.
