Description
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable, audiobook edition of The Penguin Lessons by Tom Michell, read by Bill Nighy.
'I was hoping against hope that the penguin would survive because as of that instant he had a name, and with his name came the beginning of a bond which would last a life-time.'
Tom Michell is in his roaring 20's: single, free-spirited and seeking adventure. He has a plane ticket to South America, a teaching position in a prestigious Argentine boarding school, and endless summer holidays. He even has a motorbike, Che Guevara style. What he doesn't need is a pet. What he really doesn't need is a pet penguin. <\p>
Set against Argentina's turbulent years following the collapse of the corrupt Perónist regime, this is the heart warming story of Juan Salvador the penguin, rescued by Tom from an oil slick in Uruguay just days before a new term. When the bird refuses to leave Tom's side, the young teacher has no choice but to smuggle it across the border, through customs, and back to school. Whether it's as the rugby team's mascot, the housekeeper's confidant, the host at Tom's parties or the most flamboyant swimming coach in world history, Juan Salvador transforms the lives of all he meets - in particular one homesick school boy. And as for Tom, he discovers in Juan Salvador a compadre like no other....
The Penguin Lessons is a unique and moving true story which has captured imaginations around the globe - for all those who dreamed as a child they might one day talk to the animals.

Sweet
If you liked Remarkably Bright Creatures, you will enjoy this story. The friendship between the narrator and the penguin is touching.

Finally! A Penguin about a Penguin. Heartwarming!
A really well-written, heartwarming account of this remarkable, sociable and charming penguin hero.
Very well-paced, with well-drawn and fascinating descriptions.
The account of this particular stout-hearted, athletic, and supremely talented bird holds the reader's interest to the end.
Perhaps pining was a factor in this story, as for other loyal and devoted animals- those who pair for life,

Highly recommnd this book.
This is a charming and captivating book, read extremely well. Such a refreshing change from the rather strident and irritating American accents which one is so often subjected to. I was entertained from chapter one right through to the end.....and learnt quite a bit too.
