NOMINATED FOR THE CARNEGIE MEDAL SHORTLISTED FOR THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS ""Chris Haughton s so good at making extremely shareable picture books. These are perfect for really younger ones who are sitting in your lap or at bedtime."" Nadia Shireen, The Today Programme, BBC Radio 4 ""This book will bring joy to young children and the grown-ups reading to them."" Sunday Times, The 60 children’s books you should buy this Christmas as chosen by the booksellers of Ireland From Chris Haughton comes a funny, suspenseful celebration of mothers set against an atmospheric Antarctic backdrop. Mummy Penguin is off to find a fishy dinner for her family. She has to swim very fast, climb a slippery cliff – cu-crunch, cu-crunch, cu-crunch – and even tiptoe past some sleeping seals… Shh! All the while, Little Penguin looks on in awe and says: “Well done, Mummy Penguin!” The icy – and treacherous! – Antarctic landscapes are breathtaking in this funny and exciting celebration of all that mothers do, and all that mothers are. ""A visual and storytelling triumph, ideal for reading aloud."" Top Choice, Children's Book Highlights, Irish Independent ""Another classic from Chris Haughton. With vibrant illustrations and simple text, this book will appeal to babies as well as older children and parents too."" Books of 2022, Irish Examiner ""An ode to resilient mammies and the lengths they go to for their families ... another gorgeous string to Chris Haughton's bow.""
