After Little Turtle dreams he's a penguin, he convinces his animal schoolmates to join him in games of waddling, belly-sliding, and passing the egg--all activities from the book his father read to him at bedtime. Fanciful watercolor illustrations capture the animals' antics at school and Little Turtle's continued penguin impersonation at home. A list of "penguin facts" is included.
