Gone with the Penguins by Hazel Prior

From the No.1 bestselling author of Away with the Penguins comes the heart-warming and charming final chapter of Veronica McCreedy's story. Readers have fallen in love with Gone with the Penguins 'Like a warm hug I didn't know I needed' 'A truly life affirming, beautiful read . . . I loved it!' 'A charming, wonderful romp of a book, chock full of quirky plot and characters' ------------------------------------ "Emperor penguins defy the odds, and I shall too.” Still fiery and feisty at eighty-seven, Veronica McCreedy, the very first Penguin Ambassador, is determined to prove that nothing is impossible when you put your mind to it. Eileen, Veronica’s ever-patient assistant, is content taking care of other people. But when a new adventure calls, it makes her question everything... Ten-year-old, penguin-obsessed Daisy can’t wait to be reunited with Mrs McCreedy in her huge house by the sea for the school holidays. When they discover that the local Sea Life Centre is under threat, the unlikely trio are determined to save it and the penguins that live there. Inspired by the penguins and fuelled by Darjeeling tea and finger sandwiches, they embark on an epic fundraising walk. But soon, their mission becomes so much more and it might just lead each of them to a new beginning... 'Heart-warming and original . . . An absolute delight from start to finish' TRISHA ASHLEY 'Wise, wonderful, warm-hearted . . . Fabulous writing, characters, setting and story. I laughed, I cried . . . This book is GORGEOUS!' TRACY REES 'Moving and gripping, it's a read to savour . . . [This is] a novel full of hope, full of humour, and a sharp reminder that we need to take action to protect the things we love' SAMANTHA TONGE
