There's only one way to make Juliana's nonstop sore throats go
away, and that's to remove her tonsils. Dr. Ward and Juliana's
parents help Juliana understand what will happen when she's in the
hospital. By the time she has her surgery, she knows just what to
expect. And when she returns to school, Juliana tells her friends,
"The worst thing about having your tonsils out is that you can only
do it once "
The inspiring true story of two great friends, a baby hippo named
Owen and a 130-year-old giant tortoise named Mzee. When Owen was
stranded after the December 2004 tsunami, villagers in Kenya worked
tirelessly to rescue him. Then, to everyone's amazement, the
orphaned hippo and the elderly tortoise adopted each other. Now
they are inseparable, swimming, eating, and playing together.
Adorable photos emailed from friend to friend quickly made them
worldwide celebrities. 'Owen and Mzee' is a heart-warming, true
animal story featuring an irresistibly cute baby! Here is a joyous
reminder that in times of trouble, friendship is stronger than the
differences that too often pull us apart.
The story that inspired the new MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
When Winter was a baby, she was rescued from a crab trap, her tail
seriously damaged, and rushed to Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Winter
survived, but eventually her tail fell off. Then Winter received a
prosthetic tail. It was very challenging but now Winter is thriving
and using her new tail with great command. Every year, thousands of
visitors travel to visit Winter who has become an inspiration to
adults and children alike, especially to children who are amputees
themselves. And now Winter's story is soon to be a major motion
picture starring Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, and Harry Connick
Jr.
