A review by maggiecarr
Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard Atwater, Florence Atwater

3.0

I rather enjoyed this book... more from seeing it through my son's (6) eyes than for the content itself. My adult perspective stole the magic from it and instead had me critiquing a marriage where the wife is fine with the husband leaving spontaneously for a couple of years, and worried about providing for the family financially in other portions. I have no memory of reading this book as a child but based on my kiddos experience bet I would have enjoyed it more in my younger days.
