Penguin Picture Books

Most people think of penguins as being friendly, safe animals. After all, they are the cute, tuxedo-wearing birds that often appear in children’s books and movies.

In the wild, penguins live in a harsh environment where they must constantly beware of predators. They spend their lives either on land or in water, and are perfectly adapted to survive in both environments. As a result, they can be very aggressive if they feel threatened. In general, it is best to admire penguins from a distance and leave them to their own world.
