Tired of the cold, Penguin heads to a tropical island, but skiing and skating don't work there. Before he throws in the (beach) towel, Penguin meets an island native who shows him how to enjoy everything the beach has to offer. As in Penguin and Pinecone, Yoon's story of an interspecies friendship is both funny and sweet, especially as portrayed in her welcoming illustrations.
