Editorial Reviews
Review
“Readers will respond to this warm tale of finding love.” ―Kirkus Reviews
“Yoon's cute, boldly lined characters and graphic compositions tell the story in a series of spots, full-page images, and thought bubbles. This picture book, like many before it, proves that love comes in many forms.” ―Booklist on PENGUIN AND PINECONE
“Crisp illustrations that capture a genuinely loving heart . . . a strong if whimsical choice for those separated from loved ones.” ―Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN AND PINECONE
“With her signature thick lines, pure colors and scratchy textures, Yoon creates a beach backdrop to showcase Penguin's tender personality.” ―Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN ON VACATION
“Yoon's story of an unlikely interspecies friendship is both funny and sweet.” ―Horn Book Magazine on PENGUIN ON VACATION

- Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2022These penguin book series are absolutely wonderful. They are sweet and innocent and the illustrations are delightful. It is rare to find books these days that portray selfless kindness and true friendship but these book do. Highly recommend
- Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2022I have read them with my kids many times and we love the stories. Beautiful pictures and a great story.
Easy to read and understand.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2019I bought the whole Penguin's series for my son's Easter basket, he was 1.5 at the time. These books are very cute and my kids still really like them (currently 3.5 and 5).
- Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2015My 1 year old doesn't understand the story yet, but I, personally, was completely engaged in the story and the illustrations. It's really sweet. I was wary since there were reviews that the story didn't make sense, and other than being a bit quirky, I didn't see any issues with continuity in the story line. It might be a bit hard to read with all the quoted text, but I think it just gives it charm.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2021My kids have been in love with these books since Penguin found Pinecone. Great story, great pictures, and overall a great series of books.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2016This is such a sweet story! I purchased the board book for my 3 year old and we enjoyed sharing it together. The story was a bit wordy for a young preschooler but would be fine for older prek or kindergarten aged kids.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2016This is a really cute board book. I bought it for my 18 month old granddaughter (it had been borrowed from the library and she loved it), the photos and the story are cute. The idea of knitting penguins is unique and it has a happy ending. There are more penguin books that we'll look into getting.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2022wonderful story by a terrific childrens author.

Loved Penguin and Pinecone, but this one misses the mark. Really almost no storyline. Doesnt hold my child's interest.
