Penguin Picture Books

Miscellaneous

Some brief notes on the books

Penguins, Wolfgang Kaehler, Chronicle Books (1989)

Every penguin lover needs this book. The pictures are spectacular. We bought two copies and used one to make pictures to hang on our walls.

Wildlife and Wilderness, K Shackleton, Clive Holloway Books (1986)

A book of lovely paintings of the Antarctic region, with plenty of penguins in evidence.

Penguins, Mitsuaki Iwago, Chronicle Books, USA (1997)

This book contains about 100 wonderful photographic studies of penguins and Antarctic scenes.  Mitsuaki Iwago demonstrates his obvious artistic abilities through his superb camera work. 

Birds and Islands, R Lockley, H F and G Witherby (1991)

An interesting, but ultimately disappointing ,book with stories about several islands - including plenty of penguins.
