Wally the Warm-Weather Penguin BY Stephanie M. Ward
Love how penguins move around and that my daughter and her son also love them in all forms.
Very colorful children's illustrated book. Wally dreamed of other places on the earth where he could play, in the sun, on the beaches, making castles..
He stayed for a while and discovered all kinds of things...Love hearing of the imagination and the things learned along the way. Hope he gets to visit other locations.
I received this book from Library Thing, via the author in exchange for my honest review.

Hot steamy sex and great family get together.
