Clear, full-bleed photos of penguins illustrate simple concepts in a pair of board book primers by Kevin Schafer: Penguins ABC, an Antarctic look at the alphabet with a mix of simple words ("D is for Dive") and more complex terms ("C is for Chinstrap penguins"); and Penguins 123, in which readers count up to 12 with rhyming couplets astride the appropriate numbers of penguins swimming, sliding and posing.

Penguins are attractive creatures. They look so amusing when they walk on land and so beautiful when they swim in the water. In this counting board book, a variety of penguins from the familiar Emperor to the chinstrap and rockhopper appear, photographed in groups that encourage kids to count from one to twelve. Then on the final page, there is a photograph of a rookery and a challenge to count all the penguins in the scene. The pictures that fill each spread are crisp and engaging. The numbers are large and while the text is not any great shakes it does describe in rhyme what is depicted in the photographs. 2004, Northword, Ages 1 to 3.—Marilyn Courtot
