From the illustrator of the #1 smash hit The Day The Crayons Quit comes a humorously warm tale of friendship. Now also an animated TV special!

What is a boy to do when a lost penguin shows up at his door? Find out where it comes from, of course, and return it. But the journey to the South Pole is long and difficult in the boy's rowboat. There are storms to brave and deep, dark nights.To pass the time, the boy tells the penguin stories. Finally, they arrive. Yet instead of being happy, both are sad. That's when the boy realizes: The penguin hadn't been lost, it had merely been lonely.

A poignant, funny, and child-friendly story about friendship lost . . . and then found again.

"Read it again." That is what my two year old says every time we read this book. This beautifully illustrated book tells a story of a boy and an unlikely friend. I've enjoyed noticing new characteristics and details in the illustrations each time I read it. My son points out new things as well. Entertaining for young and old. Highly recommend you add it to your collection.

The value of friendships that take all forms

23 May 2013 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

If you haven't read Oliver Jeffers-you need to. I have a 2.5 year old and we just found his works and are thrilled with them. Great for adults and for children alike. This book centers on a young boy that find a lost penguin and befriends him but thinks he needs to go home to the South Pole. They make the long trek and clearly both are sad upon departing. The boy returns and there is a great picture of an emotional hug and they reunite. It's got a great visual of what it means to be friends and the allegory would be that your friend can be of any race, religion or species if you care for each other.

The sequel Up and Down is a must have companion piece to this with the same two characters. HIGHLY recommended for your young child that is the avid story listener.

Whimsical and Fun - Adored by My 3 Year Old Son!

31 December 2019 - Published on Amazon.com

We love most Oliver Jeffers books, and this is probably my 3 year old son’s favorite! We love the whimsical nature of his stories and illustrations. After reading this book from the library I had to buy it so we can enjoy it over and over. We later discovered the short film amazon adapted from this book and that was also a favorite!

It is a really cute story, but it’s not one we read a ton like some of the other books we have.
