Gadzooks! Archie the Daredevil Penguin is hiding a dark secret: he’s afraid of the water and the creatures who lurk in the briny deep! And it’s keeping him from attending the fish fry on Iceberg Nine. But penguins aren’t supposed to be afraid of water, especially not daredevil penguins. He musn’t let his friends know! Can Archie find a way to soar above the clouds and stay out of the sea?  

Can Penguin find a way to turn his grumpy day into a good night?

Have you ever had a grumpy day and not known why? Penguin is having a grumpy day like that. No matter what he does, he just can't shake it!

Far away, near the South Pole, a blue penguin is born. It is not something you see every day. “I feel like a penguin,” says Blue Penguin. “But you’re not like us,” the others tell him. Blue Penguin can’t jump or dive very well, so the others wander off and leave him behind. In his loneliness, Blue Penguin begins to dream, and he starts to sing. Will he ever convince the other penguins that he is one of them? 

After traveling the seas, it’s love at first sight and a happy marriage for Penguin Pete when he meets Pat—the pretty penguin with the blue beak. And when their baby, Tim, is born they rejoice that he’s the perfect combination of them both—complete with a green little beak!
