Rating: 5 out of 5

This book was a thoughtful gift from a friend who knows I love penguins.

What started out as a bit of a record of experiences ended up with me being emotionally invested in Lindsay, his newborn son Walter, and the colony of penguins. I shed some tears at the end.

I feel that the book benefited from me being able to sit and read the final third of it in a couple of decent stints rather than the odd few pages before falling asleep.

The final film can be seen in the uk at https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p06mvqjc
