Mr. Popper's Penguins
by Richard and Florence Atwater
(1939 Newbery Honor Book)

Recommended by: Maggie K.
This book was an amazing book! It all started when a penguin came to Mr. Popper, but he didn't know what to do with him. Many people thought Mr. Popper was crazy. He put a hole int he fridge so the penguin can go in and out of the fridge. He named his first penguin, Captain Cook. He was lonely so he wouldn't eat. They then got a second penguin, and they were happy. After that, there was another package. It was more penguins for him. So he froze the basement for the penguins to live. Mr. Popper enjoyed the penguins company, and so did his children. How long do you think these penguins can survive in an apartment? What do you think he does with the penguins when he leaves? Well, read this book to find out!

This book was: A really good book!

I would recommend this book to:  Most of my family!

I rate this book:
