Het is het begin van een wel heel bijzonder avontuur waarin Imogen en Arthur als ware detectives op zoek gaan naar Einsteins vriend Isaac. The story idea is lovely and the way the family adapt to Einstein is delightful. There are many plot holes (like how does Einstein know where they live and how did he get to their house?) but they do not seem to matter too much. The school scenes and the way a small child behaves are not quite right - something I think children will notice, but the story is quite an easy read and just the right length for Lower Key Stage 2 readers. I love this book . . . Iona Rangeley has written a wonderfully witty story in Einstein the Penguin which is beautifully complimented by David Tazzyman’s hilarious illustrations” DAVID WALLIAMS, author of GANGSTA GRANNY

Although he doesn’t actually look like it in the drawings, I was quite delighted to find out that Einstein was a little penguin. They’re such fun and amazing little animals and I’ve not come across them represented much in children’s fiction (although NZ has an excellent book about them, written by someone who works at the National Aquarium). Einstein is a very resourceful penguin, having managed to escape his home at Sydney Zoo and managed to get himself on a flight to the UK, where he believes Issac is and is busy looking for him in London Zoo when the Stewart family see him. When he comes to visit the children are delighted and want to keep him forever and enjoy taking him on adventures – Arthur sneaks him to school, they take him shopping and although Mr and Mrs Stewart make noises about him not staying forever, they don’t do anything about it. Imogen reads detective novels so when she learns Einstein is searching for his friend, she undertakes an investigative role, determined to find where Issac is so that she can reunite them – even if that means they might have to say goodbye to Einstein. Perfect for all readers from 7 to 70, Einstein the Penguin introduces an unforgettable new character in a future-classic and fantastically funny debut for all the family to enjoy. Get ready to welcome the most extraordinary penguin into your own home...

This book is the story of Einstein, a penguin, who has embarked on a journey to find his friend Issac and incidentally lands on the doorstep of Stewart’s family one winter morning. With not many options left, the Stewarts decided to help Einstein out in his quest but will everything be as simple as it seems? Because we are talking about penguins, right? The Stewart family were fun to read and I loved the way the parents were firm but supportive of their children.
