Penguins Don't Like Pants!

Summary

Illustrated by the award-winning Rob Starling, this brand-new picture book series will put the fun back into daily routines!

Getting dressed is difficult when you're a penguin. Socks are tight and titchy. Jumpers are way too itchy. And penguins really, really don't like pants! But can they find ways to make getting dressed more fun?

This empowering new picture book series will help to encourage children to see the positive side of things they don't want to do - from getting dressed to going to bed and eating their vegetables!

Robert Starling (Illustrator)

Rob began doodling creatures and characters at school and hasn't stopped since. He lives and works in Norwich, and when he's not sketching up new characters or writing down stories he can be found sculpting, brewing coffee, adjusting his headphones or foraging in the kitchen for cake. And, of course, teaching kids. Fergal is Fuming, which was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Award, was his first book.
