*Penguins, Penguins Everywhere!* by Bob Barner
 
Also by Bob Barner:

Penguins, Penguins Everywhere!
by Bob Barner
Ages 4-8 32 pages Chronicle Books January 2007 Hardcover    

Penguins, Penguins Everywhere! disguises learning in a fun and quirky rhyme about different types of penguins all over the world (everywhere!). Color is used to make the distinction between the fact that some live in icy places (blue background) and some live in the heat (yellow background).

It isn’t until you get to the back pages of the book, including a little quiz about penguins, that you realize the pages of rhymes have taught what penguins eat, what eats penguins, why they look the way they look, how they move, and what they say. The back pages also include an index of all the different types of penguins around the world – their names, where they can be found in the world, and how big they are.

Penguins, Penguins Everywhere! contains full-page illustrations in splashing colors complemented by rhythmic prose that captures the attention of young listeners. More than just a storybook, it contains a full lesson on the lives of penguins. You can’t go wrong with a book that can be described as both informative and fun!
