Product Description
Product Description
From the amazing success of the documentary March of the Penguins to the popular penguins in Madagascar to the penguin-themed movie "Happy Feet", penguins are everywhere! That's especially true for the family in "365 Penguins", who find a penguin mysteriously delivered to their door for every day of the year. At first they're cute, but with every passing day, the penguins pile up - along with the family's problems. Feeding, cleaning and housing the penguins becomes a monumental task. They're noisy, smelly and they always hog the bathroom! And who on earth is sending these squawking birds? In a large format and with lots of opportunities for counting, "365 Penguins" is sure to become a perennial wintertime favourite.

"And next morning: Ding Dong! Penguin number 3."
My 6 year old son has autism & laughs until he cries everytime he reads this book. It is full of interesting mathematical calculations while the poor family try to solve the practical problems of storing all their new penguins in their home. The illustrations are brilliant. This book has become a firm favourite on our book shelf.

Because of the love I have for penguins I got this book for myself, sadly I don't have any kid of my own.
The illustrations are really detailed, original and funny; I was giggling with every page.

I really liked this book because it's not only got a great dialogue and storyline with a cliff-hanging finish, but entertains whilst it teaches. There is quite a lot of number stuff as well that presents maths in a fun and real way to kids. Its modernist stance on penguin management should appeal to teachers and parents alike!

Great way to learn about 'Time'
I first came across this book in my 6 years old son's reading session in class (year 2). Their class even has the penguin called 'Chill'. The children love Chill. Read more

Poor penguins!
Was disappointed when this arrived - amusing story but suspect much more geared towards the children's book market. Read more
