What is Happy King Julien Day and other stories about?

King Julien has declared a special day in his own honour, and he expects every animal at the zoo to join the celebrations. Maurice tries to persuade the others with sweets, but Skipper refuses to be impressed by the lemur king’s plans. Before long, the penguins and their animal friends are caught up in the festivities, whether they like it or not. This lively collection brings together three funny adventures filled with pranks, teamwork and the penguins’ trademark troublemaking.
