Celestine and the Penguins

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £83.90
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Celestine might struggle to make her own snow, but when real penguins arrive there's the chance of a whole new adventure. This title features confident little duck heroine, Celestine, who is bored of waiting for the snow to arrive one winter. She decides to make her own, but cotton wool and paper just aren't the same. As she trudges back to her house, who should be behind her but a host of baby penguins, set adrift from Antarctica! After attempts to recreate the chill of the South Pole fail, it's up to Celestine to find a way to send the penguins home.
