About the Book

Pengo Breaks the Ice is a new, previously unpublished children's book illustrated by Don Freeman, well-known author of Corduroy augmented with colorful illustrations by his son, Roy. In graphic novel style, without words it tells the story of a serious father King penguin and his playful young son, Pengo. The father forgets an important document and Pengo weathers Antarctic conditions to find his father - just in time. The ice is broken! A moving father and son story created by a special collaboration of father and son!
About the Author: Don Freeman was born in San Diego, California, in 1908. After graduating high school and attending a summer course at San Diego School of Fine Arts, Don moved to New York, where he studied at the Art Students' League and developed a passion for the theater. Don spent much of his time on Broadway and the streets of New York City, capturing everything that happened both on and off the stage in his sketchbook. He supported himself by playing his trumpet in a dance band, but after losing his trumpet on the subway, Don decided to turn his attention to his sketches. He published some of the earliest graphic novels and his own journal of lithographs, called Newsstand. After the birth of his son Roy in 1949, he ventured into writing and illustrating children's books. He eventually published over 25 children's books before he died in 1978 including the beloved Corduroy, the touching story of a relationship between a teddy bear and a girl, Lisa. Other titles are Fly High, Fly Low, Chuggy the Blue Caboose, Pet of the Met, authored with his wife, Lydia. At his death he left many complete manuscripts that Roy published over the years including Earl the Squirrel, Manuelo and his Cello, and now, The Sparrows of Stonehenge. The son of author-artists Lydia and Don Freeman, Roy started painting after he left home when he was sixteen. He worked as a commercial fisherman, lived with the Mazatec Indians in Mexico, and studied film and music at Antioch College. Roy turned to science and received a masters and PhD degrees in physics and geophysics from the Swiss Institute of Technology, where he taught and researched for many years. He later worked as a coach for young adults on the autistic spectrum. He lectures at the Senior Citizens University of Luzern and leads multi-day teaching hikes in the Swiss Alps.
