More than 60 years have not dated this wonderfully absurd tale--it still makes kids (and parents) laugh out loud. Poor Mr. Popper isn't exactly unhappy; he just wishes he had seen something of the world before meeting Mrs. Popper and settling down. Most of all, he wishes he had seen the Poles, and spends his spare time between house-painting jobs reading all about polar explorations. Admiral Drake, in response to Mr. Popper's fan letter, sends him a penguin; life at 432 Proudfoot Avenue is never the same again. From one penguin living in the icebox, the Popper family grows to include 12 penguins, all of whom must be fed. Thus is born "Popper's Performing Penguins, First Time on Any Stage, Direct from the South Pole." Their adventures while on tour are hilarious, with numerous slapstick moments as the penguins disrupt other acts and invade hotels. Classic chapter-a-night fun. (Ages 5 to 10) --Richard Farr

As a child, I read Mr. Popper's Penguins more times than I can count. It was my favorite book growing up and every year I tried to get away with using it in a book report just so I'd have an excuse to read it again. 20 years later, I still find myself thinking fondly of those 12 penguins marching through the Poppers' house full of snow and ice waving their little American flags. I loved the thought of the penguins living in the family refrigerator with the special handle on the inside so they could get out when they wished. And just to see what it was like, I also tried playing the piano in gloves just like Mrs. Popper had to. Although some scenes towards the end leave you feeling anxious for the Popper family and their band of birds, the ending more than makes up for it. I would recommend this book to anyone of any age and I know you'll be delighted by its rare creativity and special wit.

My wife has enjoyed "Mr. Popper's Penguins" since she was a child and my children inherited her appreciation for it. For years they have been offering it to me. I finally followed their suggestions and am glad that I did.
This is the whimsical story of a man who receives a flock of penguins and learns to live with them and turn them into a performing act. For an adult reader it is light, entertaining reading that you can share with your children. When you are looking for shear enjoyment in a book, "Mr. Popper's Penguins" is a choice for the whole family.

This is the book that ignited my imagination and life long love for reading. I chose this story as a child of nine years old on my very first trip to a public library and I've never forgotten it! I've just purchased the 50th anniversary addition to be sure that I'll have it on hand if I'm fortunate enough to someday have grandchildren. Then the tradition will continue!
