All of the penguins are smart and sensible. All except, Percy, who is... well... not so perfect. Each day is a constant struggle for Percy to behave like everyone else. He’s just not serious in any way…which sometimes comes at the expense of others. He doesn’t mean any harm, he just wants to have fun. But when Percy leaves, things just aren’t the same without him and the other penguins soon realize there’s more to life than being perfect! This gentle moral story about the difference between being silly and going too far and upsetting other people features adorable penguin characters and is perfect for reading at bedtime with a family member or sharing in the classroom. Also includes a set of supporting notes for parents and teachers with questions to encourage discussion of the themes in the book, either at home or in the classroom.
