I may only be in fourth grade, but I know more than most adults. I take notes every day and read all kinds of books, so I have a solid grasp on the world around me. But suddenly, there are penguins in my town!

I know it has something to do with the lady at the dentist and her weird powers, so I'm going to get to the bottom of it...

Penguin Highway is a captivating tale that takes readers on a journey of curiosity, mystery, and adventure. Join our young protagonist as he unravels the peculiar occurrence of penguins appearing in his neighbourhood.
