Book Reviews of Little Penguin's Tale (Voyager Books)
Book Review: Never, NEVER, go off by yourself!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Audrey Wood is such a talented writer for young children, that this story seems effortless. Let's face it! In this day and age you simply cannot have too many stories about the dangers of young children wandering off by themselve. I don't mind at all that she borrowed Pinnochio's sea adventure plot a bit. My nerty little six year old grand-daughter had me read it three times and told me (most seriously) that little girls get kidnapped and that terrible (unspecified) things can happen and they never get to see their mommy and daddy and opa (that's me) again. Author Wood never flagged on the interest level and didn't make it too scary. A grownup should be available to make sure the serious lesson is understood. A real fun book, but not empty headed fun!
Summary of Little Penguin's Tale (Voyager Books)
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
