Veronica McCreedy can't resist the promise of adventure . . .

Nine-year-old Daisy and nearly ninety-year-old Veronica make an unlikely pair of friends.

Fiercely independent and impeccably dressed, Veronica has lived an incredible 87 years. Most of them alone, in her huge house by the sea. But with the arrival of brave and resilient Daisy into her life, Veronica finds she has a renewed thirst for adventure - and that they both share a passion for penguins!

So when Veronica and Daisy are invited to travel to the other side of the world together and visit the penguins of the southern hemisphere, they both jump at the chance.

Veronica had thought her days of new friendships, family and love were over, but perhaps it's never too late for one more adventure?

A delightful read

The second story about Veronica Mc Creedy and her adventurers with the Penguins, also a story of life and love, happiness and sadness, all of which I’m sure everyone of us could easily relate to. I look forward to meeting Veronica again. I must make sure I can find my glasses…

An absolute delight of a book!

Call of the Penguins is one of the best books I have read in years, I cannot praise it enough. I sincerely hope to encounter Veronica again in the future. (I would have written this review sooner, but someone had moved my reading spectacles from where I left them!) buy the book and you’ll understand.
