• Synopsis •

Pengey finds himself reunited with Wendy, his adopted human mom. But he is also in serious trouble with mother nature. The climate of New York is not something Pengey’s built for. Quite frankly the climate could kill him. But luck is on Pengey’s side when Wendy finds a good doctor who knows about penguin health matters. Pengey has many more trials and lessons as he prepares for life, the Big City, and the ways of humans.

Pengey has a lot to learn about this fascinating environment too. Where can he go swimming and fishing? Where's the nearest Sushi Bar? What are those things called movies that Wendy likes to watch? Who are all those furry little animals that live in Central Park? Where can a penguin, buy a plaid tie and fedora? What's a Taxi? Can penguins ride on the subway? So much for a little penguin to learn!

Come along as we go with Pengey on a typical day to meet his new friends in Central Park or spend the day with Wendy at the Television station where she works.

Being the curious little spirit that he is, Pengey soon finds himself embroiled in a brand new adventure of Big City proportions.

A terrible crime has been committed against the poor children at the Tattered Orphanage. A vile and villainous gang of thugs have stolen all their Christmas presents! The police have found no clues.

Pengey must find the despicable culprits, bring them to justice, and return the gifts to the orphaned children who will have no Holiday celebration without his help!

Pengey takes on the persona of his favorite movie star private eye, Nick Sloan, to become "Pengey Sloan-Private Eye" while he investigates this heinous crime.

Pengey, his oldest friend, Lionel Macaw, and all his new animal friends, set out to find the evildoers and bring them to justice. They must succeed no matter what the risk!

Pengey takes us on a memorable journey where an unlikely character, twists of fate, and minor miracles help him solve the case, save the day, and preside over a Joyous Christmas for the children of the Tattered Orphanage.
