Rio Pinguino

What happens when your little brother is hungry, cranky, and absolutely not willing to wait?

Rio Pinguino has a mission: keep his little brother Eggo distracted long enough for Papà to finish making pancakes. It sounds simple. It really isn't.

Rio Pinguino: My Brother Is Hangry! is a warm and funny bilingual picture book about siblings, big toddler feelings, and the beautiful chaos of family mornings. With every attempt to help going hilariously sideways - a rainy backyard, a startled Mamma, a very opinionated cat - Rio's patience and big-brother instincts are put to the test.

The perfect read-aloud for families with toddlers and preschoolers, this story captures the kind of everyday moments that feel enormous to little ones, told with gentleness and a lot of humour.

The complete story is presented in both English and Italian on every page - making it an ideal choice for bilingual families, Italian heritage households, language learners, and anyone who wants to raise children with a love of more than one language and culture.

My Brother Is Hangry! celebrates sibling kindness, emotional resilience, and the simple joy of sitting down to breakfast together.
