Bookroo's summary
A penguin, who has learned to fly, returns to the South Pole eager to teach his friends the wonders of flight. However, his excitement meets unexpected reactions. Can he inspire them, or will his dreams create distance? Discover if friendship can soar beyond differences in this heartwarming tale.
From the publisher
Penguin mastered his quest to soar with the eagles in Flight School—now he’s heading home to teach his friends in this sweet and inspiring stand-alone companion story!
Penguin loves everything about flying: the wind beneath his wings, the song that rises from his belly, and the sight of new and wonderful places.
Still, he misses his penguin friends in the South Pole. So, he flips and flaps back home, ready to teach them the magic of flight!
But when he arrives, his enthusiasm for flying doesn’t get quite the reaction he expected. Will Penguin’s friends still like him, even if they don’t share his soaring dreams?
