From breakfast to dinner, dusk to dawn, children will love spending the day with this curious penguin chick.
In the latest volume of Ella Bailey’s picture book exploration of the daily lives of baby animals, we head to the ice shelf to meet a young penguin chick. What does she and her family eat? How many brothers and sisters does she have? What do they do for fun?
Ella Bailey is an illustrator and writer who graduated from Falmouth University. She lives in Nottingham, where she spends her days drawing every animal she can think of.
The One Day on our Blue Planet series travels all over our world, with each volume stopping to focus on the life of one young animal, from when they wake up to when they sleep. Young readers will find out how they eat, how they live, and what their family is like. These beautifully illustrated picture books are unlike everything else on the shelves.
