BOB LOVES BLING

PEACH THE SPOONBILL
Peach the Spoonbill is ready for a party — but there’s just one problem.
She doesn’t have a hat!
As Peach sets off along the Florida shoreline in search of the perfect party hat, she meets a couple of overly helpful hermit crabs and a cast of curious coastal creatures. With each stop, Peach learns that courage, kindness, and a little creativity can turn even the silliest setbacks into something special.
Inspired by real Florida shoreline animals.
