Synopsis

When a young girl visits her grandad, she notices he's acting very much like a penguin—his clothes don't fit, he's obsessed with fish, and he even slides down the banister on his belly. A call from the zoo reveals a mix-up: Grandad and a penguin have swapped places! This humorous and heartwarming tale explores family bonds and the joy of embracing the unexpected.
