Review Quotes:
"Yoon's story of an unlikely interspecies friendship is both funny and sweet . . . let's hope that, as the Antarctic Ambassador of Friendship, Penguin, too, shall return in more adventures." --Horn Book Magazine
"Crisp illustrations that capture a genuinely loving heart . . . a strong if whimsical choice for those separated from loved ones." --Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN AND PINECONE "Yoon's cute, boldly lined characters and graphic compositions tell the story in a series of spots, full-page images, and thought bubbles. This picture book, like many before it, proves that love comes in many forms." --Booklist on PENGUIN AND PINECONE "Readers will respond to this warm tale of finding love." --Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN IN LOVE
