    About I Am Not a Penguin: A Pangolin’s Lament

    This hilarious story of a pangolin with an identity crisis will be loved by fans of Penguin Problems and Unicorn Thinks He’s Pretty Great.

    Poor pangolin–he’s trying to explain who he is, but all the other animals keep getting confused.

    You have scales–like a snake? A long tongue–like a frog? A strong scent–like a skunk? You can roll in a ball–like an armadillo? And a name that sounds a lot like…penguin? We love penguins!

    “No, no, no! I am not a penguin! There are no penguins here!”

    But then, just when it couldn’t get worse, a penguin arrives!!

    What’s a poor pangolin got to do to be understood?!
