From a Caldecott Honor winner—Learn about teamwork and friendship when Flora laces up her skates and hits the ice with her new penguin pal. Having mastered ballet in Flora and the Flamingo, Flora takes to the ice and forms an unexpected friendship with a penguin. Twirling, leaping, spinning, and gliding, on skates and flippers, the duo mirror each other’s graceful dance above and below the ice. But when Flora gives the penguin the cold shoulder, the pair must figure out a way to work together for uplifting results. Artist Molly Idle creates an innovative, wordless picture book with clever flaps that reveal Flora and the penguin coming together, spiraling apart, and coming back together as only true friends do. Plus, this is a fixed-format version of the book, which looks nearly identical to the print version. Praise for Flora and the Penguin “Every bit as graceful a performance for both Flora and her creator. . . . Once again, Idle’s elegantly drafted scenes couldn’t be more polished . . . A real triumph.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Funny and charming—a winning, worthy follow-up.” —Kirkus Reviews

Soon enough, though, they realize that there’s more to the school than meets the eye.
