Cameron Bloom, his wife Sam and their three daughters were a happy family. They were enjoying their holiday in Thailand when a terrible accident happened. Sam was badly hurt and the doctor told her she would never walk again. Sam's world fell apart(崩溃) and she felt depressed.
Sam's family did everything to cheer her up, but it was clear that they were losing her. Until one day, an injured young magpie(喜鹊) dropped into their lives. They named her Penguin Bloom and the bird became a lovely member of the family.
Penguin and Sam soon became close friends and one was always looking after the other. When Penguin was weak and sick, Sam would lovingly nurse her back to health. And when Sam found it hard to moving, Penguin would sing loudly to cheer her on.
As the little magpie got better and grew into a strong and beautiful bird, Sam found joy and strength of her own. A year after her accident, she took up Kayak(皮艇) racing. Another year on, she had become one of the Australia's leading Para-athletes(残疾运动员).
Sam got through it, thanks to her family, exercise and yes, the friendship of a little bird. Penguin was saved by the Blooms at first, and in return she saved them in ways they could not have imagined.
a. Injured Penguin came into Sam's life b. Sam got through the hardest time
c. Sam became a successful Para-athlete d. A terrible accident happened to Sam
