What is Pink! What's a Penguin to Think When He Wakes Up about?

Patrick the penguin wakes up one morning to find he's turned bright pink! Convinced that boys can't be pink, he fears his friends will reject him. Seeking acceptance, Patrick embarks on a journey to find pink playmates among the flamingos. However, he soon realises that fitting in isn't about colour. Through his adventure, Patrick learns that true friends accept you just as you are, and being different isn't so bad after all.
