Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
What birds have wings but can't fly? Penguins! Instead, these adorable animals use their flippers to swim in the deep, cold water. Meet the different species, from the Little Blue to the Emperor, and find out about their feathers, their coloring, and their habitat-as well as how they build their nests and raise their young. By the end, kids will all agree: penguins are really cool!
