Eh, I didn't care for it. It has cute art work and a repeating number pattern, but it's really simple and there's a really limited story. ( )

A simple and straightforward tale of penguins fleeing from a seal. The pages also rhyme so in storytime, I tried to get my kiddos to guess what might be happening. (That was met with middling success) We not only count forwards, we also count BACKWARDS....which is something that I do not see all that often.

The story has a cute little twist at the end as well. See if older readers can guess it before it comes upon them. ( )

This book is for primary aged students (or earlier for read aloud students). This is a short story about 5 penguins that are enjoying their day in the snow until they spot a seal that starts to chase them. They escape into the ocean and back onto land, before they realize that the seal wanted to play tag too!
This is a book that has central themes around counting (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 penguins) and a simply story for very young children. This book could be used in kindergarten or even pre-K/earlier for adults to read to children and show the illustrations.

This book was about five penguins and they were excited for the day until they saw a seal and thought it wanted to eat them. They jumped into the water and swam away. In the end it turned out that the seal just wanted to play tag.

Cute book! I liked the sound words on the page and the illustrations made the book come to life. I would definitely read this book to my future class. ( )
