About This Book
From the amazing success of the documentary March of the Penguins to the popular penguins in Madagascar to this fall's upcoming penguin-themed movie Happy Feet, penguins are everywhere! That's especially true for the family in 365 Penguins, who find a penguin mysteriously delivered to their door every day for a year. At first they're cute, but with every passing day, the penguins pile up—along with the family's problems. Feeding, cleaning, and housing the penguins becomes a monumental task. They're noisy and smelly, and they always hog the bathroom! And who on earth is sending these kwaking critters? In a large format, and with lots of opportunity for counting, 365 Penguins is sure to become a perennial wintertime favorite.
