Regular price
€15.99
A musical penguin serenades a potential new friend in this irrepressible rhyming board book from the bestselling and beloved Sandra Boynton.
A slightly bewildered hippo and the loyal penguin who wants nothing more than to be his pal develop an unusual friendship in this sweet and silly story. Fun to hold, this read-aloud, listen-along story is a favorite for young children and the grown-ups who read to them.
Now, lots of other penguins seem to be fine
in a universe of nothing but ice.
But if I could be yours and you could be mine,
our cozy little world would be twice as nice.

Sandra Boynton is a popular American cartoonist, children’s author, songwriter, producer, and director. Since 1974, Boynton has written and illustrated over eighty-five children’s books and seven general audience books, including five New York Times bestsellers. More than 90 million of her books have been sold, “mostly to friends and family,” she says. She has also written (with Michael Ford) and produced seven albums of renegade children’s music. Three of her seven albums have been certified Gold (over 500,000 copies sold) and Philadelphia Chickens, nominated for a Grammy, has been certified Platinum (over 1 million copies sold). Boynton has also directed many music videos of her songs, including the award-winning “One Shoe Blues” starring B.B. King, “Alligator Stroll” starring Josh Turner, and “Tyrannosaurus Funk” (animated) sung by Samuel L. Jackson. She lives in rural New England, and her studio is in a barn with perhaps the only hippopotamus weathervane in America.
