Pirate & Penguin
A pirate searching for a parrot and a clumsy penguin collide in this lively tale about friendship. When a penguin falls aboard his ship, a lonely pirate mistakes it for a parrot; he paints it, tries to teach it to speak, and feeds it crackers. Frustrated at his parrot’s failures, he drives his new friend away—and learns a valuable lesson about accepting others as they are in Penguin’s absence. Inventive pirate-speak—“pirate-y poopie head!”—and bright colors complement this whimsical story.
