Review by Horn Book Review

Penguins' attributes are pitted against puffins' in over twenty categories ("highest flier," "best swimmer," "cutest baby," etc.), each allotted one double-page spread; the reader is invited to decide which bird wins. The match-up conceit, punny text, and cartoony illustrations are occasionally hokey but overall present information in an engaging way. Large photos show the birds in action. Reading list, websites.
