They hug and cuddle each other. They slip and slide across the ice and snow. They waddle to and fro with their little pudgy bodies. Let's face it: Penguins are SO CUTE ... and so is this book.
They'll warm your heart at even the coldest of temperatures. But there's more to these cutie patooties than meets the eye! They've got some serious skills, too--and loads of attitude! They can dive deep into frigid waters with lightning speed and withstand fierce cold and wind. Some male penguins will even search through piles of stones to find the perfect one and then 'propose' to his mate. Prepare to be charmed by what these adorable cold-weather animals are thinking and wowed by the totally cool penguin facts on every page!
This new series from National Geographic Kids combines two wonderful things: supercute photos of all your favorite adorable animals and silly text that will have the whole family laughing. Add to that some great nonfiction content that gets kids learning, and what can we say? This series is just so cute!
