Go Jojo Go

Descriere

Jojo the penguin just can't wait to go to sea, but first she must learn to swim! A delightful picture book for children ready to explore their world - with photographs of the gentoo penguins on Australia's World Heritage listed Macquarie Island. Jojo the gentoo penguin was born on an island in the Southern Ocean, halfway between Australia and Antarctica. From her nest she can see the beach, and she just can't wait to go to sea. 'Am I ready yet?' she asks. 'Not yet, little Jojo. You have to learn to swim.' When her down becomes a shiny penguin coat, and she can swim across the biggest rock pool, she is ready at last! Flippa-flap, snippa-snap, go Jojo go! Tessa Bickford spent two summers on Macquarie Island, where great numbers of penguins, seals and seabirds come ashore for breeding.
