App Description

PENGUINPIG is the number one best-selling story about a little girl who reads of an exciting creature known as a penguinpig on the Internet. Filled with delight and intrigue, she decides that she must go and find one.

However, her parents are far too busy to take her and so she decides that she will sneak out and find the adorable penguinpig all on her own. Carefully, she follows the instructions from the website - but does she find her delightful penguinpig?

Written by Stuart Spendlow, illustrated by Amy Bradley and brought to you by Alan Peat Ltd.

For Parents & Teachers:
In a world that relies so heavily on the Internet for many, many purposes, it is vital that we teach our children how to stay safe online. There is a huge amount of non-fiction available for children to read around the subject of esafety, but there is little fiction for younger children.

Whilst being a beautifully-illustrated, fun and rhyme-driven story for 5-7 year olds, PENGUINPIG has a strong underlying message that we need to think carefully before we trust what we read online. It enforces the message that some people use the Internet to trick others and that, in the event of being uncertain, children should check with a trusted adult.
