Penguin by Dunbar Polly
A perfect penguin present is brought to life with an animated DVD! Ben is delighted when he rips open his present and finds a penguin inside. "Hello, Penguin!" he says. Penguin says nothing. "Can't you talk?" says Ben. Penguin says nothing. It isn't until a passing lion intervenes that Penguin finally speaks...and when he does, Ben discovers something that was really worth waiting for. Offering a whole new storytelling experience, this picture book and DVD edition features a charming story animation, narrated by Emilia Fox ("Silent Witness", "Rebecca").
"The illustrations - some of the best in children's books - are gently animated but the words hold as much sway as they do in the booksGreat fun for children who already know the stories or alternatively a way in for newcomers." THE Book Magazine"
