Goodreads asked R.W. Thompson:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

R.W. Thompson From my grandson. He has had a little penguin for about 3 years, since he was5, and last year when I was working on a project, he asked me to please write a book about his penguin, Waddle. We started talking about it and it moved from being a picture book to a chapter book titled Waddle's Big Adventure. This worked out great because he is now in grade 3 and reading very well.
