To keep myself up off the ice,I find my father's feet are nice.I snuggle in his belly fluff,And that's how I stay warm enough.

In wild and wacky rhymes, Emperor penguins describe their world—how they hatch, dive, swim, and survive. The American Library Association chose Antarctic Antics for the prestigious Andrew Carnegie Medal as the best children's video of 2000. Music by the Mavericks.

      This compilation of songs to accompany a children's storybook (ages 4-8) would not ordinarily be reviewed in an audiobook magazine; it's mostly all sung, is barely 20 minutes long, and Side B is identical to Side A, except without the buzzer to signal when to turn the page. However, these extravagant rhymes and goofball lyrics, and the dead-on parodies of Broadway show tunes, the Beach Boys, and We-Are-the-World-style choral anthems (including a terrific Bob Dylan imitation) are an adult pleasure that tickles the fancy, and never fails to lift the spirits.

      Narrated by an antic pack of penguins, poems like "Antarctic Anthem" ("Antarctica! Antarctica!/ Where winter days are dark-tica") humorously teach readers about life in an emperor penguin colony. Ages 3-7.
