Super Duper Penguin Slide

Description

Have you ever noticed that penguins are always going on epic journeys? Waddle waddle! Waddle waddle! The penguin family are off on an adventure! Travelling by bus, train and even by cable car, the persistent pals keep on going, through rain or shine, sleet or snow. Finally, they soar through the wispy clouds and - yes, there it is! - their long-awaited destination is ahead, atop a frosty, snow-capped mountain... A playful, happy read-aloud, which features a jolly family of big and little penguins, and all the noisy modes of transport that little ones love.
