Ieda, Akiho

"Pen the Penguin lives with his most favorite keeper in the world: Hayakawa the human. But Pen's no orginary penguin: He's a neat penguin! A proper penguin! A doting penguin! Pen loves to daydream of Hayakawa's smile as he flips pancakes and folds the laundry with his teeny-tiny flippers. If only his beloved Hayakawa would notice! It's too bad Pen's human keeper is a hopelessly lazy university student, but with a little nap and some helpful friends, Pen is ready to tackle the day!"--Back cover.

"Pen the Penguin tries his best for Hayakawa the Human, but everything he does backfires… He gets trapped overnight at a haunted inn, gets stuck in a time loop with a baby chick, and gets mixed up with the other penguins at the aquarium! Somebody give this bird a break!"--Back cover.
