Passionate About Penguins by Owen Davey

Did you know that penguins can hold their breath for over half an hour? Or that they can swim four times faster than an Olympic swimmer? And they don't just live in icy Antarctica! You can find them on sandy beaches in South Africa and other more tropical locations too. Dive into this fascinating illustrated guide to our feathered friends, the penguins. From the tiny fairy penguin that is no bigger than a ruler, to the emperor penguin that is over a metre tall, find out where they live, what they eat and how we can protect them.
A fun, fact-filled and stylishly illustrated guide to these unique and wonderful birds -- Anna Claybourne, author of Animal Atlas

Stunning illustrations and clear readable text combine to make this large format book about all types of penguins a sure hit with animal-loving patrons. -- STARRED REVIEW, School Library Journal
