After her chicks drift off to sleep, Mother Pelican takes flight. From Shreveport to New Orleans, she visits many of the places that make Louisiana special. All the while, she thinks about her babies sleeping peacefully in their nest. Mother Pelican knows that we carry the ones we love in our hearts, no matter where we go. Author, educator, and Baton Rouge photographer Angelle Terrell writes a love letter to Louisiana, its places, and people in whimsical rhymes. Lafayette illustrator Camille Broussard brings the poetry to life with her vibrant, joyful art.
