Creatures of an Exceptional Kind

Creatures of an Exceptional Kind expresses Dorothy Whitney's talents as both special educator and artist, and intensifies her message of what it means to be different. Toulouse Turtle of the broken back, Selina Snake who has lost her hiss, and Belinda Bird whose wing will not heal are turned away into the forest by the other animals and find within themselves the resourcefulness to survive and rejoice in their own individuality.
