My son and I had fun talking about what it would be like to have a penguin, and we enjoyed the surprise with Elliot’s father at the end of the book. But this book rekindled that day dream for me, but without the unpleasant aroma. Why I Finished It: I always thought it would be fun to have a pet penguin, that is until I actually got to pet (and smell) a real live penguin. ![]() “I choosed it out for you, Mommy because it has a penguin on it!” After I picked myself up out of my puddle of melted heart, we read it together at the library and then put it in our bag to take home. He usually picks up a few of his own books, but this time, he found this one and brought it to me. ![]() Why I Picked It Up: I actually didn’t pick this one up, my 3.5 year old son did on one of our sort-of-weekly library trips. ![]()
