The penguins are back, in a new format and with a fresh new cover! The family in 365 Penguins finds a penguin mysteriously delivered to their door every day for a year. At first they're cute, but with every passing day, the penguins pile up-along with the family's problems. Feeding, cleaning, and housing the penguins becomes a monumental task. They're noisy and smelly, and they always hog the bathroom! And who on earth is sending these kwak-ing critters?

Bear can't tell time and it's causing chaos for the human family he lives with. He botches breakfast, he's late for school, he swaps music with gym class and he misses lunch too. When his time-management skills land him in a sticky situation, the family decides enough is enough. Using a 12-piece pizza pie, they teach Bear how to read a clock. Suddenly, time is on Bear's side: he's punctual, aces his classes, and fills his schedule with volunteer work and sports practices. But it isn't long before this bear begins to burn out ... Jean-Luc Fromental's engaging writing and Joelle Jolivet's signature retro design combine in this lighthearted and accessible book on the importance and how-tos of telling time.
