A penguin family at the zoo

At the Central Park Zoo, Roy and Silo’s wish to raise a family takes shape with help from a zookeeper. This picture-book account uses the penguins’ story to explore family, belonging, and the ways families can differ. The School & Library Edition adds an afterword by Eliot Schrefer and an authors’ note for educators about the freedom to read, making those materials part of the book’s context alongside the animal story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in animals and zoo life
  • Families and educators seeking a picture-book story about nontraditional families
  • School and library collections looking for an edition with an educator’s note

Book overview

ASPCA Henry Bergh Book Award Winner Lambda Literary Award Finalist ALA Notable Children's Book Nominee

The bestselling, heartwarming true story of two male penguins who create a nontraditional family that "is a must for any library" (School Library Journal, starred review) is now available in a special School & Library Edition!

At the penguin house at the Central Park Zoo, two penguins named Roy and Silo were a little bit different from the others. But their desire for a family was the same. And with the help of a kindly zookeeper, Roy and Silo get the chance to welcome a baby penguin of their very own.

This School & Library edition includes a new afterword from Eliot Schrefer, author of Queer Ducks (and Other Animals), and a special note for educators on the freedom to read from the authors.
