My Review:

This was one of the most adorable children's books I have read all year. The story is about a penguin whose grandmother is having a birthday party. However, due to the untidy nature of their house they have to hunt for everything she will need for her outfit for the party.

This is basically an interactive "Where's Waldo" type read that has adorable penguins. I am not afraid to admit that I enjoyed looking for the pieces to help grandma and the details of the story and illustrations were so complex and vivid I really just found myself admiring the art as well.

I wouldn't suggest this for children that are too young as the pictures are a little more complicated and detailed so maybe a Kindergartner or First Grade student would get a lot our of this book.

Overall, I was entertained and impressed by this lovely children's book.

My Star Rating:

4.5 out of 5
