$14.44 $16.99
"Look at the funny little penguin!" and "What a silly-looking penguin!" Hearing this all day long is enough to make any little bird angry, especially when he's NOT A PENGUIN! This is the story of a puffin who is upset that he's constantly mistaken for a penguin. He finally reaches his breaking point and goes on a rant about the many differences between the two. A little girl stops him in mid-speech because she does know the differences, and he listens as she explains to her father why puffins are her favorite.
