The Emperor's Family is a discovery book that takes children on a migration of emperor penguins from the time they form their families until the time their chick jumps for the first time into the ocean. Escaping predators and enduring the cold, arctic winds, the emperor penguin parents provide a safe, warm environment for the chick to grow. The poetic form and vibrant illustrations engage the children in the adventure. The book ends with an analogy between emperor penguin chick experiencing its freedom in the ocean and the young readers one day discovering their wings for success in life.
