'a wonderful book to read aloud' (The Parents Guide, March 2001 )

It is part of a great new series ...terrific value for the very young, but also come into their own as fabulous early readers for the slightly older brothers and sisters.'

Perfect book to make a 2 yr old smile!! BOOMBA
23 July 2002
Format:Hardcover
We came across this book by accident but haven't put it down since. It is just perfect. The pictures are adorable, the colors are bright but even moreso it's the story that we love. It doesn't have anything scary like so many kids books, esp fairy tales. It doesn't tell some long lesson that goes over the childs head. It just tells the story about 2 little penguins who are brothers, 2 and 5, and the silly games they play and how sometimes the older brother wants to play with his own friend instead. But it's ok because the little penguin finds a new friend his own age. And in the end they all play together. Usually when I read children stories to my little guy, I change a lot of the words to make them engaging to him but this book was exactly right, and I didn't need to change a thing.

Boomba!

Format:Hardcover
I picked this book up because I love penguins and enjoy reading children's literature. I found the story to be quite engaging. The book is filled with bright illustrations that enliven the normally drab colors usually associated with polar bears and penguins. The story is about two brother penguins. The older brother is 5 and is named Flip and the younger brother is 2 and is named Flop. They enjoy playing games and having fun together and they love each other very much. However, sometimes Flip finds Flop annoying and wants to do his own thing. The story is somewhat sad at this point, but soon turns around as Flop meets a new friend and is eventually reconciled with his brother. This would be a great story to read together to siblings. It made me think of all the times I spent playing with my youngest brother. A good story.
A must for my kid's collection

boomba! My 5 year old son borrowed this book from school. We read together and he returned it. He can totally relate to Flop, as he think his older brother is Flip! The following week he checked out the same book from his class, and then next time! 4 times in a row before I decided it's best to buy it for his collection.
