This is a few things about Mr. Popper's Penguins. One day Mr. Popper wrote a letter to Admirel Drake. Then, one night Mr. Popper heard Admirel Drake say "Mr. Popper I'm going to send you a present." Then one day Mr. Popper got a penguin and named him Captain Cook. Then they got a new penguin.Her name was Greta. They married and had 10 babies. they got trained and performed in a curcus. Read to find out more.I liked this book because the penguins were so funny.When they mess up the other acts because they were curious. I loved this funny book.I think everyone should read this book. It's so funny. I haven't met one person who didn't like this book.
