What our protagonist hasn’t anticipated is that this penguin is part of a colony... If I had a penguin imagines a sequence of hilarious scenarios in which the Adélie penguins visit the waterpark, the seaside and the jazz club, before cramming themselves onto the sofa to watch a film and into the bathtub before bed.
