Can a fairy penguin make a little girl’s Christmas wish come true? A warm and fuzzy animal story that’s perfect for sharing.
A lonely girl named Millie, who has recently moved to Australia, rescues an orphaned baby fairy penguin on Christmas Eve. Millie takes the penguin – the victim of an oil spill – home and names her Tink. Caring for Tink helps Millie grieve the loss of her mum. And when she organises a knit-a-thon to make tiny woolly jumpers for Tink and other injured fairy penguins, her wish to make new friends begins to come true . . .
The first in a new series of classic, heartwarming animal stories by Tilda Kelly.
