Synopsis

For the penguin family, nothing is more exciting than Christmas! Every year they sing carols, buy and wrap lots of special gifts and decorate two towering Christmas trees (one for inside the igloo and another one for outside). Then, full from good food and exhausted from the splendid Christmas party, the penguins fall fast asleep, quiet and content.

Simply styled and filled with vibrant colors, every household will find holiday cheer in the penguin family igloo!

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1-Each year Mama Penguin and her four children celebrate Christmas by singing carols, buying and wrapping presents, chopping down and decorating trees (one for inside their igloo and one for outside), making and eating food- in fact, participating in lots of traditional activities of the season. Single-parent families may relate to the undaunted energy and fervor of these chicks and their mother. The pictures contain many amusing details and are presented on a small scale best suited for one-on-one sharing. A pleasant acquisition.-M. A.
