      The audio format is a fine enhancement for Gail Gibbons's nonfiction work. Listeners will especially enjoy poring over Gibbons's realistic illustrations as George Mazzoli presents the text. Gibbons's intent is to impart knowledge in both breadth and depth in a child-friendly manner. Mazzoli's steady, clear narration is perfect for articulating facts about these birds of the Arctic. Listeners will relish hearing about the variety of penguins and their distinctive characteristics and learning about the origins of penguin flippers and warming habits. Penguin calls and sounds from the habitat complete the recording. A.R. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
