Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
*Unique, spectacular and award-winning pictures

*Andy Rouse is one of the world's top wildlife photographers and a best-selling author

*High-quality reproductions in a desirable gift format

Among the most appealing and extraordinary of all the world's wildlife, penguins lead a remarkable life swimming, fishing, breeding and surviving in the most inhospitable conditions on earth. Acclaimed photographer Andy Rouse photographs the `forgotten' penguins; the gentoos, chinstraps, rockhoppers and king penguins that are in fact the most populous varieties and often the most interesting to observe. Captured here are the fun and antics that are such a large part of a penguin's world; the surfing, sliding and iceburg escapades. Andy Rouse has photographed penguins over a number of years, culminating in this powerful, poignant, amusing and amazing record of penguin life.

5 out of 5 stars Great Gift book   September 20, 2008
This is a great gift book. It is small, it has fun pictures, it is not very time consuming. You can put it on a coffee table without taking up the whole table or put it on a bookshelve to review later. I have given it to several people and it has been well received.

5 out of 5 stars A pick any general-interest library will want.   June 17, 2007

Penguin images pair with penguin facts in a rollicking title that captures the fun penguins experience with daily life, from diving and surfing to romance. Lovely color photos set against the backdrop of blue skies and snowy scenes alike capture the natural history and joy of penguins in PENGUIN LIFE: SURVIVING WITH STYLE IN THE SOUTH ATLANTIC, a pick any general-interest library will want.
