The Guardian Jeffers continues his story of the friendship between a boy and penguin in this fourth book about the boy. The boy and the penguin are great friends. They do everything together. But when the penguin decided that he had to learn to fly, he knew he had to do it on his own. The boy tried to help, looking up information and trying to connect the penguin with flying experts. But when the penguin figures out a solution, he heads off immediately to make it happen. The boy had no idea where the penguin went. The penguin finds himself alone and lost, unable to get in touch with his friend. When the boy discovers where the penguin is, the question is whether he will be able to reach him in time to see his friend succeed or fall.

This book is written with the same charming simplicity of the earlier books. There is such a gentle and loving spirit to these books. Yet they still have a spirit of adventure and surprise. The friendship between the two characters is strong and true, supporting one another even if the other friend needs to do something on their own. This is a touching story of real friendship. Oliver Jeffers makes impressive use of space in this affecting story of friendship. Illustrations capture feelings of loss and loneliness through the most delicate nuances of facial expression and body language. Julia Eccleshare, TheThe boy and the penguin are good friends who always do everything together. Think about the things that you like to do with your friends. Oliver loves plastic food, suitcase handles and Elvis, and has developed a bizarre habit of endlessly writing lists he never reads. He remains hell bent on travelling all over the world. In this much-anticipated sequel to the internationally best-selling picture book Lost and Found, we re-visit the boy and the penguin after their trip to the South Pole! The boy and the penguin still enjoy spending all their time together! That is, until the penguin starts to dream of flying, ignoring the boys advice that it is impossible. Running away, the penguin visits place after place, searching for a chance to get his feet off the ground. But will flying be everything he had hoped? And is the boy missing him, as much as he is missing the boy? A heart-warming story about friendship, love and reaching for your dreams, from highly-regarded, multi-award-winning author-illustrator Oliver Jeffers. About This Edition ISBN: The boy and penguin duo whose story together began in Lost and Found return in this second Oliver Jeffers picture-book devoted to their adventures. Now fast friends, the two do everything together, until Penguin decides that he needs to fly, and that he must do it alone. He discovers that his heart's desire isn't everything he'd hoped however, when he joins the circus as a penguin cannonball act, and finds that he misses his friend... The penguin takes off ‘like a bullet’. Can you think of other similes to compare a fast / slow movement (or another action)?
