Who’s ever heard of a penguin that doesn't like the cold? Surrounded by the same old snow day in, day out, and always bloomin’ freezing, Clive Penguin wishes he was somewhere else. Someone else. But, with an epic discovery just around the corner, the solution might be easier than he thinks...

From real-life polar-exploring adventurer Huw Lewis Jones and award-winning illustrator Ben Sanders comes a quirky story about getting what you need, rather than what you want. Readers will hoot with laughter at the hilariously deadpan Clive Penguin – a unique voice that’s perfect for fans of Jon Klassen, Oliver Jeffers, and Morag Hood. Featuring edgy illustrations complete with orange neon ink. Oh, and penguins.

About the Author

Huw Lewis Jones has voyaged many times to Antarctica, meeting all kinds of penguins. He is now a professor at Falmouth University teaching natural history and other creative things. Huw has written books about photography, mountains, and maps, but these days his stories are mostly about annoying apples and befuddled badgers. He lives in Cornwall.

Ben Sanders hasn’t stopped drawing since he was a kid. Decades later he still draws . . . and he’s still a kid. Ben lived in the High Andes of Bolivia for several years but his studio can now be found somewhere in Australia. He really dislikes beetroot, so please don’t offer him any.
