Publisher Description: Those who know me also know that I have the habit of dressing a joke in a serious story or the reverse. When I created this story, it started as an animal story, which I meant as a bit of fun. The story escalated, as the information I present in the book needed to be as near to correct as possible, and I got involved in life in Antarctica. The story is about a king penguin, Twarty, who goes on a trip around Antarctica to acquire knowledge, as knowledge, in her view, will allow her to learn to fly. During her travels, she meets a lot of others, and eventually, she discovers a lot about life, and how to follow the flow. The story relates to the way to the way animals live. However, it addresses our human behaviour, the way we treat each other, and the world, the progress we make, and the issue that we do not recognise long term progress. Twarty, the king penguin, became part of my life, and I will need time to get her out of my system. |
