My Penguin Osbert in Love

48 pp. | Candlewick | January, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-3032-4 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by H. B. Lewis. When Joe's penguin Osbert, who lives at the zoo, shows up at Joe's door with an invitation to the South Pole, Joe agrees to help his friend see the southern lights. After Osbert falls in love with a female penguin, Joe worries he'll never make it home. Rich pastel, watercolor, and digitally rendered illustrations add verve to the slow-paced story.
