Description

With simple, rhyming text and adorable illustrations, this a perfect read-aloud for teachers and parents to share with young children as they imagine what life as a penguin is like--now available as a board book!

The short text by Florence Minor pairs perfectly with the gorgeous, detailed illustrations by acclaimed illustrator Wendell Minor. Fun facts about penguins are featured at the back of the book.

As Booklist said, "Whether it's the comical waddle, the formal appearance of their plumage, or their well-documented devotion to their young, penguins hold an unending appeal for young children." Their review called If You Were a Penguin "dazzling," "vibrant," and "breathtaking"!

Critical Reviews

"Wendell's vibrant large-scale figures, set against bracing polar landscapes, have enough personality to captivate a crowd." -- ALA Booklist

"A playful and lightly informative look at the life of penguins...an excellent storytime addition." -- School Library Journal
