Now an Amazon UK 'Allstar' bestseller this lovable children's rhyming picture book is for children ageed 2-6.

Described as 'exquisite' and 'charming', you will easily fall in love with this sweet, yet powerful, little rhyming story.

Pipsy, a young blue penguin - who hatches too early - has a secret and a huge dream.

With a mother's love and much determination, Pipsy grows gradually, but do his fanciful dreams come true?

Follow the story, brought to life by beautiful, original illustrations that magically capture little Pipsy on his journey of discovery.

  



Excerpt

The feel of the water
was such a suprise!
It felt so good, that
he opened his eyes.
Ripples of water
played on his skin,
as he twisted around
and twirled in a spin.



Professional Reviews

Adorable!
This rhyming picture book has everything.
With engaging beautiful illustrations, characters with a strong presense, a curious, but simple conflict - just right for this age group - and rhymes that flow seamlessly.
It's a great little picture book.
My grandson loves me to read it to him on my PC because the colours are fabulous.


An absolute delight!
5/5 stars.
My six year old son adores this story after only our first read and has immediately set to drawing his own Pipsy characters, no doubt inspired by the heart-warming illustrations.

The subject matter will also encourage beginner swimmers. My son has been quite nervous about swimming but now wants to learn to "twist and turn" in the water like Pipsy.

A wonderful book and a highly recommended gift.


Charming storyline.
5/5 stars
A delightful story with excellent rhythm and rhyme. My 4 year old grandson loved it, as did my younger speech and drama students. I will be buying more of this author's work.
