(3) PS Ben desperately wants his toy penguin to talk, but Penguin keeps mum. Exasperated, Ben decides to feed Penguin to a lion, but the lion eats Ben instead. Penguin comes to Ben's rescue, and a friendship blooms from a broken silence. The book's fresh white pages feature minimal text, allowing Dunbar's clean, animated mixed-media illustrations to do most of the talking.
