Great to show children to not exclude different children

Little blue penguin was different than the other penguins, but to them it made him "not like them". He felt all alone and ostracized. But little blue penguin met a friend who really liked the way blue penguin sang, and he taught his new friend the song. Once he taught the whole group how to sang they realized he wasn't different from them, he was their friend. I think the book is talking about real world issues about race and the pressure we put on what color someone is. Just because blue penguin was a different color the others made him feel different and alone, and that is very similar to adversity some children go through today.

I also think the book is very similar to the movie "Happy Feet". But all in all, a cute book. ( )
