It was hard enough for Mr. Popper to support himself, Mrs. Popper, Bill and Janie Popper. The addition of twelve penguins to the family made it impossible to make both ends meet. Then Mr. Popper had a splendid idea—the talented penguins would be a sensation on the stage. And so they were. . .

A classic of American humor, this story of a gentle house painter and his high-stepping penguins has delighted children for generations.

  The Popper Family Adventures With Their Penguins
Anna of West Linn, 8/31/2016
This is a story about a very nice man named Mr. Popper, his family and twelve penguins. My favorite part of this book was when the penguins first moved into the Popper house and things were crazy! It was so hard to put down because there is much excitement throughout the book. I recommend this book for ages 8 and up.
