Politeness for Penguins

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

Politeness for Penguins is a rhyming story in which rude penguins discover that life is better when they try to be polite. It is a brilliant first picture book about manners.

Some rude and naughty penguins put on a show of politeness to impress the Emperor, who is coming to judge the Best Town Competition. The penguins are desperate to win first prize β€” a year's free supply of fish.

But when the Emperor arrives, the penguins are in for a shock... he is the rudest penguin they have ever met! Perhaps it's time to teach the Emperor some manners?
