What a fascinating series...the chocolate and cheese books sound interesting as well.<br /><br />We have friends whose son is autistic, he too loves penguins! One day, they came for a visit and our previous dog came out of the house to greet them with his stuffed penguin in his mouth. Andrew took one look and ran to the safety of their car. A second went by, the door opened, he threw Mum's purse out onto the drive and slammed the door shut again and locked it. Andrew wanted no part of an animal that could carry a beloved penguin in its mouth!Darlenehttp://www.rosesoveracottagedoor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203825390310863045.post-69304814751767958132009-11-19T22:13:46.769+00:002009-11-19T22:13:46.769+00:00Ah, just clicked on link and found list!Ah, just clicked on link and found list!Paperback Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579608422235511054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203825390310863045.post-56691745049093726292009-11-19T22:12:58.709+00:002009-11-19T22:12:58.709+00:00What a lovely looking series!
