As everyone knows, penguins are cute creatures with almost human appearance when they waddle around. This makes them perfect fit for characters in books for children. I have quite a few of kids' books, so let's start with this one; Penguin Goes to Playschool, written by Jeanne Willis and illustrated by Mark Birchall. It's short, simple and warm story about a penguin who has a problem with taking turns. He discovers the slide at playschool and won't let anyone else have a go.
