Publisher Description

• Now with a Historical Afterword by Ron Miller

• Includes the original illustrations by Frank C. Pape


Featured in Ron Miller’s “The Conquest of Space Book Series.” Anatole France's satiric classic, opens with a Christian missionary monk who accidentally lands on the island and mistakes the native penguins for people and baptizes them. This mistake causes a problem for God who normally only allows people to be baptized, so he resolves it by converting the penguins to people and giving them a soul.
