McElderry Books OUR PRICE: $16.19 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: September 2009 Annotation: It's the day all baby penguins are going to learn to swim, but Little Pip is afraid.... Nothing scares Little Pip more than the thought of swimming in the deep dark ocean -- she would much rather learn to fly just like other birds do. But soon it comes time for all the young penguins to learn how to swim, and while Little Pip might not be able to fly the way she wants to, she discovers she can soar in ways she never thought possible. Following the success of "Where Is Home, Little Pip?" comes this reassuring tale about the lovable Little Pip that will leave readers cheering -- and perhaps a little less scared to try something new. The bestselling author and illustrator team of Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman has created a wonderful story about all the exciting adven-tures that await us once we conquer our fears. |
