Once there was a boy called Sam, who dreamt of somewhere far away –a land of wild adventure, where he wished and wished that he could play.
A place with mountains steep and high, where icy waves crashed on the shore, with lots of bright, white, crunchy snow, and giant caverns to explore.
Sam knew one day he’d travel there. But meanwhile, he would just pretend to have adventures on his own until he found . . .
. . . a penguin friend!
Monty’s tummy was pure white. He had a twinkle in his eye.
His black wings were like flippers, because penguins swim, but they can’t fly.
Sam took Monty everywhere. They built the best Antarctic den.
They built a town, then knocked it down . . . and then they built it all again!
