Perry Angel's Suitcase
by Glenda Millard (Author) Stephen Michael King (Illustrator)
It has taken Perry Angel almost seven years to find the place where he belongs. He arrives at the Kingdom of Silk one day on the ten-thirty express, carrying only a small and shabby suitcase embossed with five golden letters. What do those letters mean? And why won't Perry let go of his case?
This is a gentle and moving story about finding your place in the world – and there could be no better place than with Griffin Silk, his family and his best friend, Layla.
