Introduction
Penguins are very interesting creatures to get to know! Did you know that they go tobogganing too? Do you think that all penguins are black and white in color? If you think the answer is “yes”, then you might want to re-think that answer. Did you know that some penguins do not just live in the coldest of climates, or that not all penguins waddle when they walk?
Do you know that some penguins could weigh nearly 100 lbs. (45 kg), while other penguins weigh in at just over 2 lbs. (.9 kg)? Some penguins lay just one egg, and they keep the egg warm by holding it on top of their feet! Do you know which penguins they are? Other groups of penguins lay two eggs, but only one egg will hatch. Do you know the names of those penguins? Were you aware that some penguins have black spots on their chests, and that these spots are different from penguin to penguin? There are so many interesting things to learn about these non-flying birds!
