Synopsis
This book is for penguins only. If you're not a penguin, stop reading now or I'll slap you with my flippers!' Fresh from a jungle trip, Peter, his exuberant assistant Punky and their friend Harold discover their beloved ice-skating rink has been over-populated with some dubious-looking penguins. Determined to weasel them out and return their rink to its former glory, Peter and Punky embark on an adventure involving flying fish, silly snowmen, angry polar bears and a bunch of very sneaky squirrels.
Review
Peter the Penguin Pioneer by Daren King is a gloriously funny book about three penguins - Peter - the explorer, Punky - his assistant and Harold who doesn't believe in anything that Peter does. Here on in the fun starts, but also into the equation are the imposters - everything from squiggles to snowmen and all inbetween. It's just wonderful stuff and it did make me laugh quite a bit because of the very clever writing! And would I like to be a penguin and be on an adventure with Peter and friends - of course I would!
I very much recommend this book.
