Shifty the Penguin is a little lazy, a little dishonest, and always hungry for fresh fish. Instead of working for his meals, Shifty comes up with a clever plan: pretend he wants friendship and convince unsuspecting fish to play a game of hide-and-seek. One by one, his tricks seem to work perfectly.
But as Shifty's confidence grows, so does his greed. When he sets his sights on the biggest fish of all, he discovers that not everyone is as easily fooled as he hoped. Filled with humor, repetition, and audience participation, this entertaining picture book teaches young readers valuable lessons about honesty, trust, and the consequences of selfish choices.
