Perfect for all animal lovers—and penguin fans in particular—this book is filled with all the facts you need to know to become a penguin expert! Where are penguins found? What's it like to be a penguin? Why are penguins endangered, and who has been working hard to save them? Read this book and find out how you can help save the penguins!
Complete with black-and-white photographs, a list of fun penguin facts, and things that kids can do right this very moment to help save penguins from extinction, this book, with an introduction by animal advocate Chelsea Clinton, is a must for every family, school, and community library.
