About this product

Product Information

Cameron Bloom, his wife Sam and their three boys were a normal, happy family - until a near-fatal fall left Sam paralysed and she sank into a deep depression. But in the darkest days of Sam's struggle a new and unexpected member of the family came into their lives: an injured magpie chick abandoned after she fell from her nest, who became known as Penguin Bloom. The Blooms rescued Penguin, and in return she saved them in ways they could not have imagined. As her damaged little chick grew into a strong and beautiful bird, Sam found a joy and strength of her own. Penguin Bloom is a story of how compassion, friendship and family can come from unexpected places. This plucky little magpie reminds us all that, no matter how lost, fragile or damaged we feel, accepting the love of others and loving them in return will help to make us whole.

  • rare ,uplifting ,spirited yet graphic with detail ,splendid photos a book with heart *****

    Books there are lots whatever happens in the world lots published ,many are light reading ,some directionless .others just by so called stars to make money .Just rarely within this a true story ,with detail emerges .totally changing and affecting a whole families life ,every second of every day . Penguin bloom with a natural spirit only animals possess or choose ,in its own way ,sees the need and rescues a persons spirit . photos on their own not posed situations and pain to go through you cannot imagine . yet out of this a rescued spirit and soul a book that is truly very difficult to put down UNTIL YOU HAVE FINISHED AND READ IT truly uplifting and I am an atheist . after reading this you have a good day .N
