Mama Penguin is away on a trip and Kipling misses her very
much. When she sends him a box full of
some new treasures, including a heart she made for him, he makes her a box of
treasure in return.
A sweet as this cute picture book is, I think I have to recommend
Bunny’s Staycation by Lori Richmond first.
Kipling in this book is so melancholy, but Bunny in the other has a
great time with his dad while he is waiting for Mama. Both would work together as a way to talk
about how children feel when a parent goes away on a trip without them.
