Book Review - The Trumpet of the Swan

My Mom gave me this book to read with AA, so I picked it up and read it as I could not remember ever reading it when I was a child (my poor memory!).
Such a lovely, well written book for young readers and it teaches many lessons about being different.

I liked the illustrations too. It has ties to our emotions as during the adoption wait, swans played a big part due to being a "sign" for us!
I can't wait to begin reading it with Alyzabeth!

It is a great book. Doesn't hurt that E.B. White lived in Maine, right?
