One Potato Review

Is it nonsense that that penguins should want to fly, or atavism, or only good literature? There are few enough words in this book that it’s probably intended for very young readers, still even a grown-up is likely to feel a little let down when that alarm clock is ringing and Chongo Chingi is no longer snacking with vampire bats and hovering amid octopi in outer space. This is the kind of idea you have in the middle of the night, then you wake up in the morning and go “naahh”. Good thing the writer and illustrator here apparently both had the same dream; as usual they are in perfect understanding. Lunatic. Inspired.
