A Goofy Guide to Penguins

(2) K-3 Translated by Françoise Mouly. Illustrated by Philippe Coudray. A twin-brother team supplies "everything you never, ever asked about penguins!" The comic's horizontal trim size allows for four-panel spreads; young emperor penguins hang out on the edges, providing narration and asking and answering silly questions in a kinda-sorta informational fashion. Philippe Coudray's crisp illustrations are rendered in a cool palette, matching the frigid setting. Back matter provides "100% genuine, real facts."
