A Penguin Family . . . Finding Joy

Beschreibung

A young penguin, Squeaky, has difficulty speaking. He plays and swims like other young penguins but can only "squeak" to express himself. With family and community encouragement, a rhyming speech therapy game, and near the end of the story, amazing squeaking sounds from a team of wandering albatrosses, Squeaky says his first words to the joy of everyone, especially his South Polar Fishy Soup cooking mama and hiking expert papa.

Autor

Janet Kassalen, a small-town author, published her first book, "Flip Flap Try . . . A Cardinal's Journey," in July 2017. "A Penguin Family . . . Finding Joy," a 2020 project, was initially inspired by one of her nephew's children as well as her husband who majored and worked in parks and recreation. Her dream job is being a housewife, writer, and self-publisher. She has experience playing several stringed instruments, including the viola. She takes FaceTime banjo lessons and is learning to play the harp her husband built for her from scratch. The author's stories give encouragement, hope, and bring joy to the hearts of children of all ages. Brilliant illustrations for both books were created by Laura Yoder, a graduate of the design program of the University of Cincinnati.
