One Cool Friend by Toni Buzzeo

4.0

I love the illustrations, detail, style, and surprise ending of this book. I'm only giving it 4 stars because I don't like the idea of a kid keeping a penguin as a pet or keeping all these wild animals at an aquarium, but setting my qualms with the key plot element aside, I adore this story. It makes for a great read-aloud for my kindergarteners and 1st graders. I'm sure the older kids would enjoy it, too.
