This was such a great story! I love penguins, so picking this one up was a no brainer! In this story, we follow penguins Edward and Annie as they take a tour of Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. This is based off true events that happened as a result of the aquarium closing during the beginning of the COVID pandemic. I love that this was written sensitively with children in mind and COVID was not mentioned until the author's note at the end of the story. A few months ago, I was at a different aquarium and was able to see a "penguin parade" in which two of the penguins were taken out of their habitat and could walk through the halls of the aquarium for the visitors to watch. This story reminded me of that event. The pictures in this story are bright and colorful, I know kids will love them. I loved them! As a teacher, this is definitely a book that I'll be adding to my collection and sharing with students in the future!
