Lately it’s been a bit rainy and a little cold. When the weather is like this, I like to stay at home and read a book.
Two of my favorite books are about penguins, one of my favorite animals.
365 Penguins written by Jean-Luc Fromental, illustrated by Joëlle Jolivet.
The first is 365 Penguins. In this story, a family receives a penguin one day. As you can guess, one penguin starts arriving everyday after that for a year. The family has no idea where they are from or what to do with them. I like this book because it uses math and has a funny story. I also really like the illustrations.
ay. As you can guess, one penguin starts arriving everyday after that for a year. The family has no idea where they are from or what to do with them. I like this book because it uses math and has a funny story. I alseally like the illustrations.
Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard and Florence Atwater.
A longer book to read during a rainy day is Mr. Popper’s Penguins. This story is about a family who also receives a penguin in the mail. Eventually there are more penguins than the family knows what to do with. Mr. Popper has to figure out where to keep the penguins and how to afford them. This book is great because the penguins all have their own personalities and they like to have a lot of fun.

Have you ever ridden a slide that’s three stories high? If you haven’t, you really need to check out the slide at the Austin Children’s museum! The slide is in the funstruction zone. It goes from the third floor to the first floor. The slide is 26 feet long and it takes nine seconds to slide down all the way. You’re traveling three feet per second, wow that’s fast! When I rode the slide I wanted to go back up and ride again. It’s kind of like a water slide without the water. You’ll love it!
