What's black-and-white and evil all over?
Get ready to find out the terrifying truth....

Penguins. They're everywhere — gracing movie screens, Coke ads, and merchandise. But don't let those happy feet fool you. When they're not surfing or marching bravely across the Antarctic, penguins have a whole other agenda going on. And it isn't pretty.

In Evil Penguins, Elia Anie captures the antics of cute little birds who have gone over to the dark side. If you thought the worst a penguin could do is make you feel guilty about global warning, think again. Here are cartoons of penguins leading revolts, giving SpongeBob a swirly, causing plagues, clubbing baby seals, killing Inuits while dressed as ninjas, and wreaking havoc in dozens of other hysterically appalling ways. Both penguin lovers and those who know that evil can come in even the cuddliest packages will appreciate these bad birds.

Review:

"A fun and breezy read. Anie channels The Far Side with great success and maintains an acidic, devious tone throughout the entire book." Ain'tItCool.com

Synopsis:

Anie captures the antics of cute little birds who have gone over to the dark side. Here are cartoons of penguins leading revolts, casing plagues, clubbing baby seals, and generally wreaking havoc in dozens of other hysterically appalling ways. Illustrations throughout.

Evil Penguins is a great quick read when you want a good laugh. It has a similar style to The Book of Bunny Suicides, which I also recommend. My only complaint is that I want more evil penguin hi-jinks. It's dark humor done right.
