In Penguin Beach by Lawrence Prestidge we meet Clyde. Clyde is a penguin. And he absolutely being a penguin!
He is the main attraction at Penguin Beach, which is a centrepiece at London Zoo.
None of the visitors can resist the strutting, posing star of the penguin show, Clyde.
But then disaster strikes for Clyde! Because now, there's a new penguin on the block, Diego, who has come to London from Spain.
Diego leaps, jumps and back-flips and the visitors just love him. But why are the other penguins also impressed by Diego?
This is Clyde's Penguin Beach! He works hard to regain centre spot and to drive Diego out of the limelight and out of Penguin Beach for good!
However, Clyde realises that he has gone too far and he has inadvertently put Diego's life in danger. So it's up to Clyde and his penguin friends to find Diego and bring him back to safety. Or will a variety of gorillas, snakes and the bad guys thwart them?
It's another great book for children from Oxfordshire's Lawrence Prestidge, with fantastic illustrations from G. William.
It's published by Matador at £7.99.
