What is The Not So Perfect Penguin about?
Percy is a penguin who is not quite like the others. While his friends are sensible and serious, Percy loves being silly, playful and full of fun. Sometimes his jokes go too far and upset the other penguins, even though he never means to cause trouble. When Percy decides to leave, the penguins discover that their icy home feels strangely quiet without him. Can they learn that being different is not a bad thing, and that there is more to life than being perfect?
