Synopses & Reviews
Every great friendship started somewhere, but here's a story of how not to make friends…
When Virgil the penguin finds a lost polar bear, Owen, he wants Owen all to himself. He will be the only penguin with a polar bear as a best friend! But this Owen plays with everyone else on the iceberg! Isn't Owen supposed to be Virgil's friend and Virgil's friend only?
With a gentle twist on this classic childhood dilemma, Paulette Bogan introduces a new charming and lovable duo to readers.
Review
"Beautifully captures how some toddlers enter play groups or friendships with force because they don't know any other way. Perhaps this unlikely duo from opposite polar ends of the ice caps will help struggling toddlers become more self-aware of friendship faux pas." —Kirkus Reviews
Synopsis
For fans of Toot & Puddle or Duck & Goose, here comes a new friendship duo to warm readers' hearts.
