Book Reviews of Penguins!
Book Review: Penguins! by Wayne Lynch
Summary: 5 Stars
A terrific book for any child who has a strong interest in penguins. Pictures are wonderful - but I would have liked to see a specific picture for each type of penguin described with each penguin's characteristics noted in the picture's caption.
Summary of Penguins!
Renowned science writer Wayne Lynch has a passion and fascination for the members of the penguin family. A self-described "penguin addict," he has logged more than 130,000 miles to sit among hundreds, sometimes even thousands of penguins on the far-flung beaches of the Galápagos Islands, Chile, Antarctica and New Zealand. This stocky little bird survives a rocky adolescence and adulthood, to experience territorial squabbles, "marriages," attacks by sea mammals and sometimes months without food as it incubates its eggs through the unrelenting winter. With lively, humorous writing and unforgettable photographs, Penguins! explores the daily lives of this feisty seabird survivor.
