Review "Gloriously silly. . . illustrations reminiscent of Quentin Blake lend the story a daffy verve, and the short chapters with cliffhanger endings make for a perfect read-aloud. . . . Ridiculously charming." —Kirkus Reviews"Think Indiana Jones adventure with an Agatha Christie twist and you have the zany antics of Mr. Penguin and company. The story features a cast of endearing characters and a writing style that walks the line between funny and zany. With illustrations offering complementary, but just as wacky, details for younger readers, this title will still appeal to adult readers as well. . . . A great addition to a library or home bookshelf." —School Library Connection Review Quote "Think Indiana Jones adventure with an Agatha Christie twist and you have the zany antics of Mr. Penguin and company.
