Shall we set off on an exciting adventure too, following the penguin siblings? An Exciting Journey With All Kinds of Vehicles: Traveling Together With The Penguin Siblings! The 'Traveling Together With The Penguin Siblings' series is a new work by Noriko Kudo, an author beloved by readers of all ages. Known for her 'Meow Meow Mayhem' series—which portrays the delightful chaos caused by mischievous kittens and has built a strong following among readers in Korea—she now introduces a new series starring three utterly adorable penguin siblings. With their round, mochi-like faces, plump yellow lips, and short arms and legs waddling along, these lovable little penguins are impossible to look away from. These adorable siblings, so charming just to look at, are setting off on their very first trip. The three of them plan to visit their relatives by taking a train, a ship, an airplane, and a bus. They've traveled with adults many times before, but this is the first time the three of them are going on their own. The night before the trip, the big sister keeps checking her notebook, where she's written down the names of the departure and arrival stations along with the schedule. Pengi and Gwini sit beside her, carefully packing their bags with toiletries, clothes, emergency money, snacks, and toys. They're nervous about the possibility of boarding the wrong vehicle or getting off at the wrong station, but they're also excited about all the fun things that might happen along the way. 'Traveling Together With The Penguin Siblings' is a picture book that thoughtfully and joyfully captures every moment of a journey, from beginning to end. The detailed illustrations, which carefully depict how to use various modes of transportation as well as the scenery inside and out, make the story even richer. In 'We Ride the Train,' the train station bustles with people coming and going, and shops selling souvenirs, newspapers, and lunch boxes. The three siblings arrive early, buy what they need, and board the train when they hear the boarding bell. They find their seats according to the numbers on their tickets. In 'We Ride the Airplane,' the process of boarding a plane—trickier than other modes of transportation—is shown in detail, including how to transfer at a layover. In 'We Ride the Bus,' readers learn that when riding a bus, you should listen carefully to the stop announcements and press the bell in advance before your stop. Along the way, the story unfolds many joyful moments that can only be experienced while traveling—eating a boxed lunch while watching the scenery pass by the train window, unexpectedly encountering a magical pod of dolphins while riding the ship, and the thrill of the airplane soaring high into the sky. Children Who Grow by Discovering a New World Arriving in unfamiliar surroundings with no one to rely on, the three penguin siblings sometimes find themselves flustered by unexpected situations, and they make mistakes too. As soon as they arrive at Sea Station, their first destination, little Pengi loses his ticket. In his excitement to hop off the train quickly, he dropped it somewhere without noticing. Without a ticket, they can't get through the gate—it's a real problem. Flustered, the big sister ends up scolding her little brother. They search through their bags but can't find the ticket anywhere. Just as tears are about to well up, a kind passerby finds the ticket Pengi had dropped. Though they sometimes fumble and even cry, the three siblings press on with their journey, undaunted. Through travel, children grow by experiencing a new world they never knew before. Perhaps the greatest gift this book offers children is exactly that feeling—no longer being afraid of the unknown, but instead growing curious about the wider world.
