Penguin

by Polly Dunbar

Ages 3–5 Reading age 4 Picture book Set in everyday life funnygentle

Ben is given a penguin and does everything he can think of to make it speak. The penguin says nothing at all, until it matters.

A story about children and animals, funny and gentle in tone. We would put it with children of 3–5, and at a reading age of about 4 for reading alone.

Or let them write their own.

Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
