Synopses & Reviews
It's time for some sunshine! Poor little Henry! All the other baby penguins are having fun sliding on the ice and tumbling in the snow, but Henry doesn't like the cold and dreams of sandy shores and warm seas. When a boat sails close to the ice, Henry jumps on board and heads off in search of sunshine. It doesn't take him long, however, to realize that there's no place quite like home. Children will love this warm and witty story with its adorably entertaining central character.
