‘An outstanding debut. Funny and surprising’ The Times Best Books for Children 2021
‘This debut novel is a delight . . . A joy to read aloud’ Sunday Times Children’s Book of the Week Perfect for all readers from 7 to 70, Einstein the Penguin introduces an unforgettable new character in a future-classic and fantastically funny debut for all the family to enjoy. Get ready to welcome the most extraordinary penguin into your own home… When the Stewarts spend a sunny, frosty December day at London Zoo, they’re enchanted by one small penguin. At the delight of young Imogen and Arthur, Mrs Stewart insists the penguin “must come and stay with them whenever he likes.” But not one Stewart expects the penguin to turn up at their door that evening, rucksack labelled “Einstein” on his back… The family’s new feathered friend helps Arthur to come out of his shell and makes massive demands on Imogen’s amateur sleuthing. But together they must find out why Einstein came to them and they must keep away from the mysterious white-coat man. And Einstein can’t stay forever, can he…? From stunning new writing talent Iona Rangeley, and illustrated with wit and brio by the award-winning David Tazzyman, this is a book that will be treasured for years to come.Reviews
I really like cute Einstein the penguin and the idea of how he came with a backpack and he has a cute friend called Isaac. I think Imogen is a bit like me.

Einstien is a great character because he squarks and walks around on his webbed feet. I think it is funny.

Einstein the penguin was the first book Iona Rangeley and was illustrated by David Tazzyman. The main characters are 2 children called Imogen, Authur and Einstein the penguin. The story starts on a snowy day when the two children were bored. they decided to go tho the zoo but there was one penguin when they got there seemed quite to take an interest in one of the children and to the children's surprise this penguin comes to stay. The story is funny at the beginning but it get more serious and at the end it was sad. Overall the book was an excellent read! The book was full of twists and turns so thats why i rate it 5 stars. If you have liked this book review i recommend the sequel. Any 8 year olds would be hooked to this book and would find it hard to put it down!

This was a little too easy to read for me and the illustrations were a little crazy.

A good book and I would recommend it for others to read. It is very funny and it's really off because a penguin comes to stay (and he is really naughty too.)

It was funny. My favourite part was when Einstein slapped the detective in the face and they tied him up. My favourite character was Einstein. I would recommend this book.
