The Adventures of Pelican Pete Preening for Flight Pelican Pete First Discoveries Pelican Pete written and illustrated by Hugh and Frances Keiser hardcover, $15 each published by Sagaponack Books

Pictures by Hugh and verse by Frances make these three tales of growth in the life of a young pelican delightful to read, and especially to read aloud.

"A wonderful mix of poetry, pelican biology and environmental education. This is a nice book to read with your children and learn about pelicans and conservation."
- James A. Rodgers, Wildlife Biologist, Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission

So what if Pete is from St. Augustine, Florida? His cousins live on the Outer Banks!
