Einstein the Penguin
I love this book . . . Iona Rangeley has written a wonderfully witty story in Einstein the Penguin which is beautifully complemented by David Tazzyman's hilarious illustrations. - DAVID WALLIAMS, author of GANGSTA GRANNY
An outstanding debut. Funny and surprising. - The Times Best Books for Children 2021
When the Stewarts spend a sunny, frosty December day at London Zoo, theyβre enchanted by one small penguin. At the delight of young Imogen and Arthur, Mrs Stewart insists the penguin βmust come and stay with them whenever he likes.β
But not one Stewart expects the penguin to turn up at their door that evening, rucksack labelled βEinsteinβ on his backβ¦
The familyβs new feathered friend helps Arthur to come out of his shell and makes massive demands on Imogenβs amateur sleuthing. But together they must find out why Einstein came to them, and they must keep away from the mysterious white-coat man.
And Einstein canβt stay forever, can heβ¦?
From stunning new writing talent Iona Rangeley, and illustrated with wit and brio by the award-winning David Tazzyman, this is a book that will be treasured for years to come.
