| Publisher Description: Just as in the story that Grand Nanny Penguin is telling, Little Penguin slides down hills, dances with wild, silly, goony birds, and almost gets eaten by a whale. "The deep greens, bright yellows, and glacial blues depict a northern world of fun and frolic that is warm and appealing."--Booklist |
