A little boy finds and befriends a lost penguin and tries to help it find its way home.

Animals Should definitely Not Wear Clothing
By Judi Barrett
Illustrated by Ron Barrett
Publisher: Aladdin, 32 pages
Just think of all the reasons why animals shouldn't wear clothes. The writer and illustrator of this book certainly have! Imagine a sheep in a jumper ... wouldn't it get too hot? How about a hen in trousers ... would it make egg-laying difficult? The upside down opossums are sweet. And the elephant in a dress and hat reminds me of a family friend, which, as the Barretts point out, could be very, very embarrassing ...!
