A new edition to the acclaimed Strange and Wonderful series. The seventeen species of penguins come in all sizes and are fascinating in many other ways. The little blue penguin, the smallest, stands about sixteen inches high, and the emperor penguin, the largest, stands almost four feet tall. Some penguins are named for how they look, such as the black-footed penguin, while others are named for where they live, such as the Galapagos penguin. Laurence Pringle's informative book, with stunning illustrations by Meryl Henderson, introduces young readers to the life and behavior of one of nature's most remarkable birds.

Penguins!: Strange and Wonderful
Penguins are apparently popular animals (say that fast three times) in elementary schools, judging by the number of pre-service teachers who have developed penguin units in my library during the last ten years.
This book is the best one we have purchased in my library (an instructional materials center--we have 21 titles for children). It clearly delineates the different species of penguins, including penguins that live to the north in warmer climates (!) and includes a map showing where each specie lives. The life cycle is explained (compare to the film _March of the Penguins_) and there is a warning against damaging the habitat through tourism. An end note includes some websites for further information. Illustrations by Meryl are both beautiful and informative. This book would be a great addition to any elementary level collection.
