Description
In this installment of "Penny Pangolin and Friends," dive into the vibrant and bustling life of the village festival in "Penny Pangolin and the Rock Soup," a tale filled with fun, food, and a dash of unexpected trouble, perfect for young readers who love The Berenstain Bears and Little Critter stories!
In this delightful tale, Penny Pangolin is buzzing with excitement. The annual village festival is here, filling the air with laughter, music, and the irresistible aromas of various delicacies. Penny's dear friend Vin, a fellow pangolin, is visiting just in time for the festivities. Together, they dream of one day hosting their own food booth, showcasing Vin's special rock soup - a pangolin delicacy that's not just delicious but essential for their digestion.
But amidst the fun of ring-toss games, concerts by the Singing Gibbons, and racing with chopsticks, a culinary misadventure strikes! Penny's curiosity leads her to try a mysterious dish that soon leaves her feeling unwell.
With her scales itchy and her stomach in knots, it's up to Vin to whip up a batch of his famous rock soup to soothe her tummy and lift her spirits.
As they navigate this hiccup, Penny and Vin don't just learn about the importance of knowing what's in their food, but they also strengthen their bond, proving that friendship and caring are the best remedies.
Echoing the familial warmth of The Berenstain Bears and the adventurous spirit of Little Critter, "Penny Pangolin and the Rock Soup" combines an engaging narrative with educational elements, introducing young readers to unique aspects of animal diets and the importance of dietary awareness, not just for humans but for animals too.
At the end of the book, don't miss the special section about pangolins, their critical endangerment, and how each one of us, no matter our age, can contribute to their conservation. There's also a page showing all the background critters hidden throughout the book's illustrations, making sure to engage your child even more.
Kids ages: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will enjoy joining Penny and Vin in their culinary adventure and learning how even the smallest of us can make a big difference in our world, one bowl of rock soup at a time!

A very colorful book that my granddaughter and I enjoyed reading together. The giggles and emotions that she had while reading about Penny made this Mimi’s heart happy. We also enjoyed a search and find of critters that we saw throughout the book. Looking forward to more Penny adventures! --Amazon Review --This text refers to the hardcover edition.
