Pierre the Penguin

Written by Jean Marzollo; illustrated by Laura Regan

What do you do when a penguin starts to lose its feathers? Well, if it is during the penguin’s normal molting time, there is nothing to do but wait as the feathers grow back. Now if a penguin molts at other times of the year, then you make him a coat. Take a look at Pierre the Penguin by Jean Marzollo to learn how scientists at the California Academy of Sciences made a coat for Pierre the Penguin.
