Description
Lotus and the Golden Pearl is the story of a young girl called Lotus Alfred, who is bullied by the local kids and teased mercilessly by her older brother. When Lotus writes a poem exploring her notions of peace, her brother finds it and teases her. To Lotus, the teasing feels more like humiliation and she runs off to the beach. Her odyssey begins when a giant pelican swoops down and whisks her away to an enchanted island. Here the animals all talk and they tell Lotus that they are expecting her to bring peace to their land.
Lotus is not convinced that she is the right person for this daunting mission, but she finds a magical pearl that reveals her innate wisdom. With this new guidance, Lotus ultimately realizes that the peace she seeks must start with her.
