Stephanie Ward's debut

October 27, 2014

Congrats to Stephanie Ward on the publication of her first children's book:

Wally the Warm-Weather Penguin

illustrated by Vanessa Landin

Published by Forwards Press, in ebook format, isbn 9780989842303

for ages 1 - 4

Wally is an Emperor Penguin from Antarctica who is always cold. When he learns about the Galapogos Islands, he sets sail immediately in search of warm weather and discovers tap-dancing crabs, racing 100 year old tortoises and diving birds with blue feet.

Sounds great fun - well done Stephanie!
