Hardcover. 53 pp. Mr. Kraft opens his railroad depot one bright September morning in 1935, when he spots two big, preposterously ugly, lumpily-jointed birds, who turn out to be African storks blown west by a freak storm. The birds possess an uncanny talent: they are able to communicate with each other, and Mr. Kraft via Morse Code. The depot agent delights in introducing his feathered friends to new foods and local customs, all while keeping them hidden from wily zoo-keepers bent on their capture. Flush with pen & ink illustrations. Seller Inventory # AE29301
