Description
This rib-tickling romp starring two hilarious stuffed animals is an excellent pick for discussing sleepovers with anxious little ones.
Duck and Penguin do not like sleepovers, despite what their owners, Betty and Maud, might have you think. They do not like snuggly sleeping bags, they do not like super-soft pillows, and they ESPECIALLY do NOT like being extra cozy together in a teeny-weeny tiny tent!
But when Betty and Maud abandon Duck and Penguin outside, Duck and Penguin have no choice but to stick together. The dark outside is full of strange noises, after all, and they have the oddest feeling that...something...is watching them.
From author-illustrator Julia Woolf, this picture book companion to Duck & Penguin Are NOT Friends is brightly illustrated and full of funny moments to share together.

Reviews
"Digitally colored vignettes have lovely layered textures and subtleties of color, but the real stars here are the exquisitely expressive lead characters, who elevate sleepover phobia to an art form." —Publishers Weekly
"The appealing illustrations are lively and expressive." —Kirkus Reviews
"The text describing the girls' clueless behavior is juxtaposed with comically grumpy stuffed animals. . . .the story offers discussion openers for young ones who have not quite figured out whether or not they enjoy sleepovers." —School Library Journal
