Have you ever felt like you just didn't fit in? Have you ever thought you were the oddball? Feeling out of place in a whole new world, the newly hatched Penelope is forced to face circumstances that threaten to rob her of her true destiny. In Penelope's Journey, Susan Henderson crafts a children's tale featuring an ill-fated fowl who struggles with her odd-looking appearance. Delivered to the wrong mother by a rookie stork, Penelope is mistakenly given to Olga-an ostrich with underhanded intentions. Treated more like a nuisance than a daughter, Penelope tries her best to act just the way her "mom" expects. This poignant story takes the reader on a trip that tugs at the heartstrings, but is crowned with an encouraging message of life-changing truth.

Jane Austen: The Complete contains major novels, which interpret, critique and comment upon the British landed gentry at the end of the 18th century. Austen's plots often explore the dependence of women on marriage in the pursuit of favourable social standing and economic security. Her works critique the novels of sensibility of the second half of the 18th century and are part of the transition to 19th-century literary realism. Her use of biting irony, along with her realism, humour, and social commentary, have long earned her acclaim among critics, scholars, and popular audiences alike.
