We read this one during the summer....wish we had waited until the weather was colder. Alex enjoyed the story of the silly painter and his adventures with the penguins.
sorry, forgot to post name....

I look forward to this book, I have never read it. It is recommended on sonlight and gets such great reviews!
Oh and thanks for adding your name...anonymous comments always make me nervous.
