Penguin's Hidden Talent

Penguin's Hidden Talent by Alex Latimer

Summary: Penguin helps organize the annual talent show because he cannot identify his own gift, but when the show is over and the performers throw a party to show how much they appreciate Penguin's work, his aptitude becomes clear.

My Thoughts: I enjoyed this story!  I like seeing a character realize his true talent and worth!  Penguin thinks he doesn't have a talent, so he just organized the annual talent show.  But as the story unfolds the reader can easily see that Penguin's talent is organizing a fantastic talent show!  Young readers will hopefully be able to see their own talents more clearly after reading or hearing this story.
