Penguin in Love by Salina Yoon - OPTIONAL

Yoon, Salina Penguin in Love.  PICTURE BOOK.  Walker (Bloomsbury), 2014.  $15.  Content: G.  

Penguin is a little lonely and when he finds a stray mitten in the snow, he decides he needs to look for its owner.  With a whole lot of knitting and the collusion of some puffins, Penguin realizes that someone who is just his friend, may also be someone he can love. 

Yoon’s penguin character is an absolutely adorable illustration.  The plot of this particular entry is pretty convoluted, but the illustrations kept drawing me on.  I would rather have a whole book of Penguin illustrations, but not this particular plot so much.
