Product Information

This session uses the song 'Bare Necessities' from The Jungle Book. You may want to use the following clip as a stimulus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ogQ0uge06o Peter and Paul are the best of friends, until one day while they are diving for fish, Peter is caught in a storm and swept out to sea alone. Thankfully, a kind blue whale is on hand to help him find his friend again - the only problem is that Peter has forgotten to tell him that Paul is a puffin, just like him. The artistry is amazing, it can only be described as what looks like pastel drawings, which creates these beautiful, appealing pictures with an overtone of the biting antarctic winds. A heart-warming story of a little blue penguin who struggles being different from the rest. The story discusses friendship and belonging, with a lovely finale. Angels & Urchins Blue penguins are found right around the coast of NewZealand and southern Australia, but none closer to human activity than in Oamaru. The birds nest right around the harbour area and the Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony offers a unique opportunity for you to observe the world's smallest penguin arriving home from their day at sea and returning to their nests.

Books for KeepsNot sure what he would have done with the whale or where exactly she would have taken him, anyway. Was this a metaphor for committing suicide? I don't know.

Na de superleuke Moppereend was ik zeker in de bui voor meer boeken van deze illustrator. Hij heeft een hele originele stijl. Plus ik hou van pinguïns! Dus tja, dit boek moest mee. Het gaat over een kleine blauwe (ja, echt) pinguïn die wordt geboren bij alleen maar zwarte pinguïns. De zwarte pinguïns zijn best gemeen want ze hebben nooit een blauwe pinguïn gezien. Ik vond het zo sneu voor onze kleine blauwe pinguïn. Hij deed alles wat pinguïns doen... en toch werd hij niet geaccepteerd door zijn kolonie (ik vind de Engelse naam veel leuker: waddle). Die arme pinguïn. Maar gelukkig komt er toch nog iets goeds, ik ga lekker niets verklappen maar wat was ik er blij mee. Wat was dat zoet zeg. Ik zat gewoon helemaal aww te gaan. Al moet ik zeggen dat ik vond dat diegenen wel iets meer moeite mogen doen. Forgotten the title or the author of a book? Our BookSleuth is specially designed for you.
