Farr, Richard
2009
Re-creates the voice of Apsley "Cherry" Cherry-Garrard to provide an account of his adventures as the youngest member of Robert Scott's expedition to Antarctica in the early twentieth century, during which he and Edward Wilson try to learn the evolutionary history of emperor penguins.
Compares and contrasts the habitats, life cycles, and physical characteristics of polar bears and penguins. Includes color photographs, fact boxes, and quizzes.
Pursued by their former crewmate, turned enemy, the space penguins splash-land on an ocean planet, and find themselves in the tentacles of a monstrous squid--can they find a way to extract themselves and their ship before it is too late?.
A storybook adaptation of "Happy Feet," the 2006 animated movie about Mumble, an emperor penguin who was ostracized by the penguin community because his Heartsong was expressed through dancing instead of singing.
Six little penguins named after flowers and plants decide to paint a beautiful picture on the ice for their mother--and end up with paint all over themselves.
