A penguin levels with human readers about what penguin life is really like—and it isn’t all fun and games. A hilarious first collaboration from Jory John (I Will Chomp You! and Quit Calling Me a Monster!) and Lane Smith (The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales).
 
Have you ever considered running away to Antarctica? Of course you have! Because it’s a land free of worries and responsibilities! All of your problems will surely be blown away by the icy winds of that lawless paradise! . . . Won’t they?
 
Think again， my friend. This penguin has come to tell you that his life down there is no more a picnic than yours is here. For starters， it is FREEZING. Also， penguins have a ton of natural predators. Plus， can you imagine trying to find your mom in a big ol’ crowd of identical penguins? No， thank you.
 
Yes， it seems there is no escaping the drudgery of your daily grind， whatever it might be. Or perhaps we’ve just learned that grumps are everywhere. . . .
 
Jory John and Lane Smith let us decide. This book is sure to tickle kids’ funny bones and will elicit appreciative sighs from the adults reading it aloud.
