Reviews
Kids taken by ‘Happy Feet’ can satisfy their curiosity with this easy-to-read and well-presented book packed with facts about all 17 species.
— Herald Sun
(A) guide to every penguin species complete with maps, full colour pictures of the animals and plenty of information from marine biologist Norman.
— Bookseller+Publisher
A truly splendid book... informative and beautifully presented. If it doesn’t get shortlisted as an information book in the 2007 CBCA Book of the Year Awards, then I’ll eat my woolly cap!
— Dianne Bates, Buzz Words
(A) fascinating publication about our unique birds from the southern hemisphere
— Classroom
(A) worthwhile addition to any collection. Highly recommended
— Reading Time
(This) is an excellent resource for primary students, and like most good information books for children should appeal to adults too
— Magpies
