For months, Penny's dreams have been filled with melodious whistling,
accompanied by twinkling lights. Then the mysterious whistling suddenly
stops. When Penny goes searching for its source, she unexpectedly
discovers her Cherokee roots--and a special gift that has been handed
down to her. Lyrical and skillfully woven, Audrey Penn's latest tale
recounts a child's delight in awakening to her heritage. Lavishly
illustrated by Barbara Leonard Gibson, The Whistling Tree reminds us all
how deeply the past and the present are intertwined.
