Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers
There once was a boy and one day a penguin arrives on his doorstep. The boy decides the penguin must be lost and tries to return him. But no one seems to be missing a penguin. So the boy decides to take the penguin home himself, and they set out in his row boat on a journey to the South Pole.
But when they get there, the boy discovers that maybe home wasn’t what the penguin was looking for after all.
A truly magical book from a gifted artist and master story teller. It is a beautiful story of friendship and discovery.
