The boy decides the penguin must be lost and tries to return him. But no one seems to be missing a penguin. So the boy decides to take the penguin home himself, and they set out in his row boat on a journey to the South Pole. But when they get there, the boy discovers that maybe home wasn’t what the penguin was looking for after all A Children’s Bookshelf Selection : Each month our editor’s pick the best books for children and young adults by age to be a part of the children’s bookshelf.

Review: A favourite! - Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers was T’s second book by the author. I introduced it only when I was sure she has got used to The Boy and his ways from the previous book (he is a little different you see) She took to this book after a while, only when she understood the story well after repeated readings. It has now become a classic and she asks for it lesser each day, though it has been a hit. The Boy finds a penguin at his door one day and doesn’t know what to do. He thinks that the penguin is lost, but is he? WHAT WE LIKED The Boy’s helpful personality, although peculiar, is full of warmth and welcome, and that is what children should be exposed to. The concept of loneliness is handled so beautifully, it took me a couple of readings before I could appreciate it myself. Full paged illustrations. Never fails to grab the attention of a scampering toddler. Dealing with feelings. Realization, acceptance, and action. WHAT WE DISLIKED like all of OJ books, this one too has some things that can’t be termed logical from an adult point of view. But then for a child, anything is possible and okay. Recommended! Published by Harper Collins Children’s Books. Recommended age 2-2.5+ years. Review: Amazing - Awesome for a 5 year old. My kids live reading. The pictures make the book fun to read. ## Features - Harper Collins Childrens Books - It ensures you get the best usage for a longer period ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #7,117 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #23 in Children's Fiction Books on Cars, Trains & Things That Go #28 in Children's Books on Cars, Trains & Things That Go #67 in Children's Books on Friendship | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 3,791 Reviews | ## Images ![Lost and Found - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81DJS+yEu0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A favourite! *by A***A on 7 October 2020* Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers was T’s second book by the author.
