Five little penguins are content in the cold—until they spot a menacing mammal!

With a rhyming narrative that counts to five, adorable penguins are soaring—or flying—through the sea, trying to elude a lurking creature. But as young readers of this charming tale will discover, a friendly seal is only looking to play a game of tag.

HERE'S THE STORY IN A NUTSHELL:

I NEVER leave my nut tree. It's way too dangerous out there. I could encounter germs, poison ivy or sharks.

If danger comes along, I'm prepared. I have antibacterial soap, Band-Aids and a parachute.

But things really get shaken up later in the book when I'm forced out of my tree by a vicious intruder!

Will I survive this ordeal? Will I undergo a life-changing experience? Will I discover my true inner self?
