Beautiful gift book!

When Dorothy Penguin looks down from her home atop Glacier Hill, she sees the penguins in her village all look exactly the same! Same flippers, same beak, same black and white coat. Dorothy decides to set off on a fantastic quest to find the one person who can make her different the most magical man in the world Santa Claus!
