The Little Penguin (World of Happy) Synopsis
There was once a little penguin who was frightened of the water. 'You coward', said his father. 'This is no way for penguins to behave'. 'Be gentle', said his mother, 'for ALL of us have fears that others may find hard to understand...Come, Little Penguin. Come into the water with me'.
