“I love this book . . . Iona Rangeley has written a wonderfully witty story in Einstein the Penguin which is beautifully complimented by David Tazzyman’s hilarious illustrations” DAVID WALLIAMS, author of GANGSTA GRANNY

“An outstanding debut. Funny and surprising” The Times Best Books for Children 2021 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.

I liked that there were animals in the book especially a penguin. I liked how the characters worked together to get Einstein back with his friend.

I loved the book because it was interesting and it was fun because it was all about a penguin that can read and write.

In this book, Einstein the Penguin was invited into Imogen's and Arthur's house by their mother. However, they are really surprised when the penguin actually shows up at their house. With his arrival, a mystery comes around Einstein's missing penguin friend. I recommend this book to people who like detective stories.

It was a really funny book where they were trying to rescue Einstein’s friend,Issac who was in a zoo but they only got to meet him for a few hours before they rightfully sent him back to the zoo he came from and as for Einstein he was sent back to Australia where he belonged.Everyone thought it was the right thing to do and got to call Einstein. I would highly recommend this book as it is very funny and enjoyably to read.

I liked when they trapped the detective in the zoo with tape and a bucket.

I liked this book because in it a penguin travelled all the way from Australia to find his friend. He arrived on the doorstep of a family that took him in and one of the children took him to school in his bag. Einstein was my favourite character because he was loving and funny and he was very smart.
