Penguin & Moose
by Hannah C. Hall

Penguin has a problem--he doesn't know how to fly. He and his friend, Moose, try everything they can think of to get him airborne: balloons, treetop starts, cocooning like a caterpillar. But no matter how hard they try, Penguin remains firmly on the ground.

At the end of the day, a tired and disappointed Penguin realizes that he has something better than the ability to fly--a friend that supports and loves him no matter what. Written by best-selling author Hannah C. Hall, this series debut celebrates the power of friendship. Children are sure to fall in love with the adorable Penguin and Moose.

Penguin was thrilled.

Completely, undeniably, tingly-to-his-toes thrilled.

Moose had invited him to spend the night. He'd never spent the night at a friend's house before. 

Penguin & Moose Brave the Night
by Hannah C. Hall

In this charming picture book, best friends Penguin and Moose learn how to be strong despite their worries as they face their fear of the dark.

Penguin's excited to go to his first sleepover at his friend Moose's house! But Moose doesn't use a nightlight, and Penguin is afraid of the dark. To protect himself from the things that go bump in the night, Penguin prepares with an array of tactics and tools, including a slingshot, a football helmet, and bug spray.
But when nothing works to chase Penguin's fears away, Moose shares his own trick: remembering that God is always with him.

​Written by best-selling author Hannah C. Hall, this second book in the charming Penguin & Moose series is the perfect bedtime story to reassure scaredy-penguins everywhere.
