Reviews

[Erick Mejia]

I like this book because it tell you about real facts. I think you should read this book because it is a great story. It talks about the parents have to keep the egg safe. They can't let the egg get on the snow. When the egg hatches they have to be careful of the albatrosses.

I think that you should read this book because it is a really good book.

[Joseline Villar]

I think you should read this because it is interesting that the penguins will not let their egg touch the snow and kids or people can use it to do a science project.

I love this series. Some of them are very hard to find and command a high price. The pictures are clear and bright and the "clear pages" add interest. They are Europeans based, so some of the species pictures are not native but the information is sound. Recommended, if you can find them!

Q2021 book.

[Jackie]

A simple, straight-forward, introductory book about penguin habitats, food, mating, and survival. Great for any kid who loves these endearing animals.

J’ai toujours aimé cette collection lorsque j’étais enfant. Elle est bien faite, accessible et les transparents ajoutent un côté satisfaisant à la lecture ! Magique 😀
