Description
Five little penguins went out one day
Over the hills and far away.
Mamma Penguin said "Hurry back to me!"
How many penguins can you see?
Join the adorable penguins on a lift-the-flap walk through a winter wonderland. There's so much to see as Mamma Penguin and her chicks waddle through a frosty forest, skate down an icy river, and toboggan down snowy slopes. Along the way, they meet all kinds of festive animals playing in the snow.
But wait - the chicks are disappearing one by one... Whatever are they up to? Lift the flaps to find the chicks and discover a fantastic surprise ending.
Based on the nursery rhyme Five Little Ducks, the second title in an all-new lift-the-flap series is perfect for sharing at Christmas.
