Charlie and Mama Kyna

Frolicking fun, Charlie and Mama Kyna by international award-winning filmmaker, Diana Rumjahn, is the unique, robust and lively tale of three friends, Charlie, a frog, Leo, a lion and Joe, a giraffe-all ready to be loved. Young and older readers alike will revel in the graceful innocence and camaraderie as these three plush buddies, presently without a home, journey to find one. Together they go home to Charlie's mother, Kyna, who lives in a little white cottage with big red brick steps. Over the wall and through the big city-it proves to be quite a journey. Originally a film that has been shown worldwide and an official selection at the prestigious The Times British Film Institute's London Film Festival, the colorful story of this book inspires emotional involvement. This group of plucky pals will capture the hearts-and imaginations-of new audiences everywhere. Winner of The Best Short Story for Children Award from 39th Annual Marin County Fair, Marin County, California.
