Had this one a long time

This is a sweet book about a boy with a pet pelican - how he protects his pelican, and how he lets him go at the end of the book. At the very VERY end we find out that the pelican, now safe in the Land of the Pelicans, knew she was a girl the whole time. She lays an egg, and presumably the story starts over again.
