Resimlerle ve fotoğraflarla birlikte çok keyifli bir anlatıma sahip. Penguenleri, özelikle İmparator Penguenleri çok severim, onlardan biri olmak isteyebilirdim sanırım.

This is similar to the Horses & Ponies book, only about penguins instead. We received this as part of my daughter's summer reading program with Usborne Books. One of the stuffed animals she attached to around 1 year old and still clings to, is a penguin from Uncle Thomas. She also loves visiting the penguins at the zoo. These all combined to make this book an instant hit with her. Even if she isn't asking to read all the information this little book includes, she'll still sit and flip through the pictures and charts all on her own.

Penguins is a information book you know it's an information book because it's tell you about something in detail in this book it talks about Penguins and how they do things. Like it tells you about how there skin and feather protect them in cold. It tells not just about penguins but there predators. I liked this book because my favorite animal is a penguin.

This book talks all about Penguins and how fascinating they are. Where do Penguins live, eat, clean, and more. This is a informative book and you can have children use the glossary and the table of content.
