How I Became Uncle Jon

By Roger Kellogg

One day as I was mopping the floor, I thought I heard a knock on my door.

Well, good morning And who are you? I'm Timmy I'm Tammy I'm Tommy I'm Sue

Four little penguins, oh what fun Out romping and playing in the sun.

But how did you get here? Where are you from? Where is your daddy? Where is your mum?

Our friend Jon abruptly finds himself hosting four little penguins as their parents, Pete and Patty, set off on a canoe camping adventure. Things get off to a rocky start, but eventually Jon finds the key to entertaining the young guests and has a marvelous time getting to know them. An entirely entertaining cheerful tale wrapped around bits of practical wisdom that make good sense, for little people and for big people, too.

The My Favorite Penguin Book Series was created especially for an older reader to share with young listeners. The books are written in rhyming verse that entertains the ear and lends itself to reader theatrics and character embellishments. The pages are filled with rich, colorful images in a hybrid sketch-on-photo style that provide visual engagement and opportunity for side conversations and tangential stories that can bridge generations. And of course, the storylines are intriguing enough that a reader and listener can discuss motives and feelings, causes and effects, impact and meaning, as time and interest allow.
