Little Penguin: Finger Puppet Book: (Finger Puppet Book for Toddlers and Babies, Baby Books for First Year, Animal Finger Puppets) (Little Finger Puppet Board Books, FING)

This is a short book with childlike illustrations. The story-line (such as it is) is essentially hide & seek between penguin friends. My son thinks this story is so funny especially when we give the penguin a voice and have him look all around for his friends. (As for myself, I find the story-line lacking but it doesn't faze my son at all.) This book gives us an opportunity to discuss direction up, down, left, right while we seek the other penguins.The book itself is sturdy and the puppet easily fits adult fingers. My son does try to use the puppet on his own but it is too big for him to manipulate. These are definitely books best read with an adult.This is a fun series for toddlers and babies that allows for interactive reading time and imaginative play for little ones and their caregivers.If you are looking for more interactive arctic theme books try Little Polar Bear by the same publisher...

This story is sort of lame, boring to read to my baby, I prefer the other animal puppet books over this one.

This series is adorable for toddlers and beginning readers. The little finger "puppets" that are part of the book allow kids to participate, and to find enjoyment in reading. It makes the story become animated. Short, easy text. colorful.

Really weird story. You have to study the images and the wording to figure out what the story is about. I don't like this book and I put it where he can't find it easily. Not that he wants to anyways.

My son loves when I wiggle the finger puppet and read the story to him. He always grabs my finger in the puppet while I am moving it.

We have the Little Crab book from the series and love it. It is cute with a little rhyming story to go along. The penguin book is cute, but the story is lacking. Our son still loves to read it and talk to the penguins on each page.

True, it's not a "story book" per se, but the pictures are engaging and certainly captures a baby's attention -- my 18-month-old nephew loves his book so much I'm having to purchase a replacement as it's starting to suffer somewhat from constant wear-and-tear (apparently it's one of the few things that successfully distracts him when he's out-and-about with his parents)

It was a gift for my one year old niece. She seems to like it. I think the whole series of books are very cute. The pages are sturdy, and the finger puppets are adorable. Great book for a small child.

An excellent book that allows the child to interact with the (finger puppet) character. It also makes for an excellent first reading book for when the child starts to learn to read.

I was disappointed with the illustrations and lack of colour. The concept of a finger puppet showing on each page is fun but in reality it was quite difficult to turn the page while keeping the puppet on show, and it is a 'showing' book. My grandaughter couldn't use it without a lot of help.

Once again bought this for my small grand-daughter who loves in Australia and like the mouse one she loves it. Small sturdy little books

gorgeous

we love it
