Written by David Elliot (an award-winning author and illustrator) this book is a New Zealand classic that includes two of the inventor, Sydney Penguin's adventures. These two adventures, that are focused around Sydney inventing ways to help a stranded whale, are not without trouble and chaos!

Like other books by the same author, e.g. Pigtails the Pirate, the illustrations are expressive and inventive too.
