Kippie, the little penguin, began his morning with his usual stretches. Then he had a delicious breakfast: his favorite fish sandwiches. After that came the best part: cuddling with his Mom. Kippie loved sitting on his Mom’s lap, wrapped in his yellow blanket, and not rushing anywhere.

“It’s time to leave for school,” Kippie’s Mom said and patted him on the head.

“Just a little more,” Kippie said. “If I have enough cuddles with you in the morning, I don’t even get hungry until late afternoon. Our cuddles are the sweetest!”

“In that case, let’s cuddle some more so you don’t get hungry until dinner!” His Mom smiled and kissed his beak.

Kippies friend Toshka rang the doorbell. Together, they left for school. They both really liked school. The two friends especially liked story times when their teacher Faya read books to them. First, the teacher read a story, and then all the students drew the characters from the story, made puppets, or dressed up in costumes and acted the story out.

Today, the class story was about ants. Kippie and Toshka have never seen a real ant. Teacher Faya told the class that each ant had a job they did. The students could choose an ant job for themselves, too. Everyone chose a job: one little penguin became a hunter, another a herder. Others said they wanted to be a scout, a nanny, and even a syrup barrel.
