<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Poppy the Penguin comes from a long line of circus performers. Many skills have been passed down from penguin to penguin. However, Poppy soon decides that performing in the family circus is not for her, as she prefers to feel calm and in control. But the hardest thing is not juggling, or riding a unicycle--it's telling her mum that she doesn't want to perform any more. Her bravery is worth it when Poppy discovers a better role--organizing and coordinating the whole show. And what a show it turns out to be! This tale of overcoming shyness and lack of confidence is both a funny and sensitive parody of the record-breaking movie The Greatest Showman, and a celebration of girl power!"--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A heartwarming story about overcoming fears and the meaning of success</b> <p/>Poppy the Penguin comes from a long line of circus performers.
