The Professor and the Stork - Hardcover

by Peter Luykx (Author), Rebecca Warfel (Illustrator)

A young girl, Magda, has fallen on hard times. She has lost both her parents, she has no home, and it is wintertime. Fortunately she has made friends with a stork who knows how to play the piano, and she is very good with words (which is why she named herself a Professor). They team up and fly south-very far south-where it is warmer and where together they can entertain the people with their songs. But a selfish King wants them to perform only for himself. So he locks them up in his palace. The end of the story tells about how they escape and what they do afterwards.
