Reach for this book when your child is facing a setback or feeling discouraged by their own physical or perceived limitations. It is a perfect choice for the young tinkerer who loves to build, or for the child who needs a reminder that 'the way things have always been' does not dictate the way things have to be. The story follows Penguin and a quirky group of flightless birds who refuse to accept their grounded status. Through trial, error, and some very creative engineering, they build a flying machine and set off on an adventure. When they encounter a terrifying storm, they must rely on their unique individual strengths and collective bravery to stay afloat. It is an uplifting tale about resilience and the power of a shared dream, told with a lighthearted, humorous touch that keeps the message from feeling heavy-handed.
