Attila, Loolagax and the Eagle

What would you do if you were born a penguin, but hated the cold? Would you have the courage to set off across the ice floes of the South Atlantic in search of a better life? It would be tough, but you would have to give it a go - just as the delightful and courageous Attila does in this charming book about being yourself, finding friends, and enjoying the aventures along the way. In this unusual and epic tale a penguin, a vulture and an eagle (which is really a hedgehog) form an unlikely alliance as they overcome all in the search for the perfect home. Written with great wit and tremendous energy by Nichola McAuliffe, this unput-downable book is a brilliant first reader for all children who want a great story with lots of adventure. In this charming and quirky book Nichola has made the humble penguin a figure of huge courage and stamina. The perfect hero.
