The unique, moving and heartwarming true story of an unlikely
friendship which captured imaginations around the world . . . 'I
can't remember the last time I read a book that made me smile so
continuously' 5***** Reader Review 'How could a penguin transform
so many lives? Read it and see. You'll not regret it' 5***** Reader
Review 'Delightful, uplifting, enjoyable, fun and beautifully
written' 5***** Reader Review _______ Tom Michell is in his roaring
twenties: single, free-spirited and seeking adventure. He has a
plane ticket to South America, a teaching position in a prestigious
Argentine boarding school, and endless summer holidays. What he
doesn't need is a pet. What he really doesn't need is a pet
penguin. But while on holiday in Uruguay he spots a penguin
struggling in an oil slick and knows he has to help. And then the
penguin refuses to leave his side . . . Clearly Tom has no choice
but to smuggle it across the border, through customs, and back to
school. He names him Juan Salvador. Whether it's as the rugby
team's mascot, the housekeeper's confidant, the host at Tom's
parties or the most flamboyant swimming coach in world history,
Juan Salvador transforms the lives of all he meets - including Tom,
who discovers a compadre like no other . . . _______ AS HEARD ON
BBC RADIO 2 'A much-beloved tale about a much-beloved bird . . .
Heart-warmingly eccentric' Guardian 'So touching that I didn't want
it to end. I really loved this book' Michael Bond, creator of
Paddington 'Charming' Daily Mail 'One of the most touching tales
we've read all year' Heat
