Emperor's Egg by
Martin Jenkins
"Can
you imagine spending the winter outdoors in Antarctica without
anything to eat all all? That's just what the male Emperor penguin
does. While his mate is off swimming in the ocean and catching
fish, he stands around in the freezing cold with an egg on his
feet for two whole months, keeping it warm and waiting for it
to hatch. Meet the worlds' most devoted dad!"
