Title: Porter the Pelican Finds his Wings
By Bryan & Elissa Porter
A story of courage, friendship, and the North Carolina shore.
Target audience: Early reader (ages 5–8)
Memorable characters: Porter the Pelican & Sharpe the Segall
A story dreamed up on the sands of Oak Island, where Porter and Elissa once sat together, laughing and imagining adventures by the sea. Oak Island has always been a special place—our family’s home and a reminder of love, courage, and joy.
The story of Porter the Pelican is about more than finding the perfect shell. It’s about-facing fears, learning about friends, and discovering the beauty that comes with courage. Just like the tides, our family memories here keep rolling in—sparkling, shining, and timeless.
