"A little penguin tells a big penguin about the shared experiences it likes most...With large bold shapes against flat backgrounds in poster-paint colors, Murphy's first book makes clear the happy closeness of the pair... Any child with a loving, committed caregiver wilt recognize that person in these pages." (Kirkus starred review)

"While penguins may evoke an icy climate, the loving and playful relationship between this penguin parent and child makes for an exceptionally warm little book." (Publishers Weekly)
