Description
Poor little Henry! All the other baby penguins are having fun sliding on the ice and tumbling in the snow, but Henry doesn't like the cold and dreams of sandy shores and warm seas. When a boat sails close to the ice, Henry jumps on board and heads off in search of sunshine. It doesn't take him long, however, to realise that there's no place quite like home.
Children will love this warm and witty story with its adorably entertaining central character.

Author's Bio
Gillian Shields writes both picture books and full-length children's fiction, using her experience as a drama teacher for inspiration. She lives a busy life, both writing and teaching, and lives in Sussex with her husband, two children and a little brown dog. She has written a number of picture books for Macmillan, including SAM'S SNOWFLAKE (978 0 230 53178 9), also illustrated by Rosie Reeve. Rosie Reeve originally trained as a fine artist, but became interested in illustrating children's books after having her own three children. Rosie has illustrated four existing books for Macmillan, including BELLA GETS HER SKATES ON (978 1 4050 8926 5). Her instinctive understanding of colour brings a real warmth to her work, and her adorable, cuddly characters are full of charm.
