The Littlest Penguin

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
Winner of the 2024 Environment Award for Children's Literature. The adorable little penguins come waddling and tumbling out of the water and up the hill, back to their burrows on the island . . . But that's just the end of an even more amazing story. Where have they been? What adventures did they have? Come on an incredible journey with Little Penguin, Scruffy, Cheeky and Big Chick as they go out to sea for the very first time. Created in partnership with the Penguin Foundation and based on the amazing journey behind Phillip Island's Penguin Parade, including a non-fiction section with all you need to know about these wonderful little birds. Beautifully illustrated on every page and packaged as a small gift-hardback format, this is as irresistible as the cuddly little birds the story is based on.
