Review by Horn Book Review

It's a mystery: each day for a year, one penguin arrives through the mail. As the numbers grow, readers get in some counting, addition, and multiplication practice (although ultimately the book's point isn't mathematical but ecological). The quirky art--predominately black, tangerine, and pale blue with plenty of white space--easily fills the book's oversize dimensions. (c) Copyright 2018.
