“Cannon fans will lap it up.” —Kirkus Reviews   Pinduli’s mama has always told her that she’s the most beautiful hyena ever. But Dog, Lion, and Zebra don't think so. Why else would they make her feel so rotten about her big ears, her fuzzy mane, and her wiggly stripes? Poor Pinduli just wants to disappear. But then a case of mistaken identity lets her show the creatures of the African savanna how a few tiny words can create something enormous.   From the creator of the best-selling Stellaluna comes this triumphant story about self-image, self-acceptance, and treating others with respect.  Includes notes about hyenas and other animals of the African savanna.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Winner of the ASPCA Henry Bergh Children's Book Award “Cannon combines an anthropomorphic story with factual endnotes about the wildlife, and the engaging artwork succeeds in making an unappealing creature sympathetic. The illustrations mix Audubon verisimilitude with Disney-like sentimentality.” —Publishers Weekly   “Stunning full-page naturalistic acrylic paintings with colored pencils focus on key episodes with an emphasis on the emotions of the animals. . . . The engaging tale includes great natural history, as in Stellaluna and the author's similar other works.” —Children's Literature   “The animals' expressions and antics are hilarious and endearing; Cannon has pulled off quite a feat in creating a cuddly hyena protagonist. This touching book about personal growth and self-acceptance gently demonstrates how the actions of one can have far-reaching effects on many others. An appealing and worthwhile purchase.” —School Library Journal   “Cannon fans will lap it up." —Kirkus Reviews —

Super cute book for kids. We had other books from this same author and had to get more- the kids love the illustrations and the stories are all neat. Plus every book has an epilogue with educational information about the animals in the books for older kids

5.0 out of 5 stars one of my favorite stories
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2019

I love this book. It's one of my favorite stories. Tells the story of a young hyena and how she deals with some not-so-nice other animals. I think this is a great book for a couple of reasons: 1. it tells a great story with a good lesson and 2. it's about an animal that is often disliked by humans for no reason. People tend to dislike hyenas, but they are no different than any other predator. This story lets kids get to know that hyenas have feelings too. I love that this author, Janell Cannon, often has stories about animals that you usually don't see in stories - like Stellaluna (about a bat) and Verdi (about a snake) . Pinduli is a great book.

I was looking for a series of books for my daughter, who is 11 and in special ed. I was looking for books which would highlight animals - which she adores - and teach her something at the same time. As we had read "Stellaluna", by the same author, we looked forward to recieving this book with great anticipation, and were not disappointed. The author cleverly weaves the sympathetic story of Pinduli, a young hyena who is picked on, with a moral lesson as well. Also, we learned of different habitats and creatures. Now Pinduli is one her favorite books! We have ordered more books by this author, including "Little Yau", and have never been disappointed. The combination of the beautiful art and writing makes it easy for the reader to connect with the charaters in this book.
