Pearl's Lost Pearls - (Gossie & Friends) by Olivier Dunrea (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Pearl loves her pearl necklace--maybe even as much as she loves singing. But when she comes home from a day of singing to friends all over the farm, her pearls aren't around her neck where they should be. Pearl retraces her steps, but it's only with the help of resourceful and observant friends that her prized possession is returned"--

Book Synopsis

Pearl wears her pearl necklace everywhere, every day--until it goes missing! A book for anyone who's ever felt the loss of something precious and had the good fortune to find it again.

Pearl loves her pearl necklace. Maybe even as much as she loves singing! But when she comes home from a day of singing to friends all over the farm, her pearls aren't around her neck where they should be. Pearl retraces her steps, but it's only with the help of resourceful and observant friends that her prized possession is returned. Olivier Dunrea lends his signature charm to another preschool conundrum and shows how help often comes on the wings--or tail feathers--of friends.
