Penguin Highway

by Keito Yano (artist), Andrew Cunningham (translator), Tomihiko Morimi (original_author)

One day, penguins are spotted in the suburban town that fourth-grader Aoyama calls home. The penguins make their sudden appearance in a residential district—nowhere near the ocean—and disappear just as mysteriously. Where could they have come from, and where did they go? Aoyama is determined to get to the bottom of it! This is the slightly curious, unforgettable tale of that summer.

I read the novel Penguin Highway back in 2021 (and I still haven't seen the movie!). I found the manga far more funny than the novel. It was nice having the art though. All those cute and angry penguins. Delightful.

*3.5 stars

I’ll need to eventually find and read the actual book but that was wild

[R]

Very cute but also very odd. Kind of hard to wrap my brain around what's going on.
