Review Quotes

Finally, we're going to close up today with a little penguin that hates winter. Grumpy to his frozen little core, this penguin proceeds to tell us all about why he hates this season so much, including having to bundle up to the point of immobility, slipping on ice, snowballs, all that. He's highly resistant... but he does very much like climbing up hills and going down on his sled. There's a vertical panel of him doing this very thing.
