Penguin's Hidden Talent
Alex Latimer
There's a talent show about to happen in Penguin's town but Penguin has no talent. All his friends have one like Bear. He juggles appliances and Albatross can swallow a whole marlin! They all try to help him but all Penguin can do is hiccup. He is quite organised and helpful. What talent will Penguin reveal?
Penguin feels inadequate compared to all the other animals as they can do great things. Doesn't matter if you don't have a medal or can't play an instrument, it's about figuring out what you're good at and not to compare yourself with others. What becomes of Penguin is a good message to kids (and everyone else) that everyone has a skill, you just have to find it and use it. The illustrations are extremely cute and Latimer uses a lot of block colors which can be quite simple but they are effective and delightful.
This is a talent show not to be missed, even the King of Norway makes an appearance.
