Illustrated by
John Bendall-Brunello.
Despite her name, Henry is a typical but lonely girl. When her farmer father rescues a duckling, Henry names her Rosalie, her "piece of luck." As the duck grows, Henry's family realizes they must do what's best for Rosalie and find her a new home. This loving tribute to a special pet and the joy it brings is warmly illustrated with black-and-white drawings.
