I was walking around the library on the Navy base in Sasebo. I had about 45 minutes to spend. Unlike most libraries, this one had no newspapers to read. I picked up an interesting book called How The Penguins Saved Veronica written by Hazel Prior. I always enjoyed the book Mr. Popper's Penguins so I thought I would like this one too. At the end of the 45 minutes the book was checked out and put in the library book bag with the other book my grandchildren borrowed and I didn't see it for a week. Luckily we were going back to the library and I did have time to finish the book. This book has a sequel so I will look for that too. I enjoyed this story about a curmudgeonly grandmother named Veronica who visited the South Pole and impacted penguin research.
