  • Perfect for reading aloud to young children

Pippi is brilliant at swimming, sliding and diving – the other penguins can barely keep up with her! But when Ella goes missing, Pippi realises that she needs the help of her colony, and it's time to share her skills. 

Beautifully illustrated by Jean Claude, a self-taught illustrator from the UK who is currently living in Lisbon, Portugal. When he's not drawing, he loves making ceramics, visiting the botanical gardens and baking bread.
