Great Book!

I purchased this book for my son, who loves penguins. He loved it!!! Even his small children love it. The book has become a family affair for them.

Why Penguin Can't Fly?

Quite informative and attractive. But I can't find an "ISBN/Code No." of this book.

most excellent

semi-prompt shipping, good experience, excellent condition when it arrived, and it was in the necessary packaging to keep it that way from when it left, so i was happy.

Penguins

I like this book because it can tell u and me alot about penguins but i think that this site is bad because is doesent show u the inside of this book to be better that other wed sites.My suggestion to the company if they read these is that u can do better.

Great photos and text between the same covers!

Picture books usually have boring text, and nature books usually have photos that look like the ones used to prove the existence of the Loch Ness monster. This book has great color photos of all 17 species of penguins AND informative, readable text. Lynch obviously cares about his subject and his readers. For those who want to know more, he even includes a bibiliography. If you are a nature photographer, bird lover, or penguin fanatic, this book is for you.
