swan that cannot fly

All swans can fly. Except Kunigunde, which is why she is terribly teased by her brother and the other swan children. At first, the swan girl is devastated, but over time she proves with her good deeds that she is a valuable member of the pond community. In his debut children's book, Gert-Albert Lipke proves that being different doesn't have to be a bad thing. Diversity is good and important you just have to be willing to accept each other. Lipke knows that dealing with a living being that is physically or mentally impaired can be challenging for young children. With his animal story, he wants to promote harmonious and respectful coexistence. He believes that looking closely promotes mutual understanding.
