Product Description
Dudley is a penguin - a very cuddly penguin. He's so cuddly that his brothers and sisters won't leave him alone. Wherever he goes, they follow, demanding a cuddle. Fed-up with all this, Dudley goes looking for a place where he can play on his own. After walking for some time, he comes to a little hut that looks just right and seems to be empty - so Dudley makes himself at home. But the other penguins follow his waddleprints and find him. "Can we come in?" they ask. "No, you jolly well can't," says Dudley. "I'm very busy and I don't want to be disturbed." Alone again, he dives into the bath, tihinking how happy he's going to be on his own. But then the man who owns the hut returns. "What an adorable penguin!" he exclaims, and he too wants a cuddle! Dudley flees out into the snow ...Soon, he's lost and rather lonely. It's getting dark. He climbs a tall hill ...and there at the bottom are his brothers and sisters. Dudley rushes down and they have the best huddling, waddling, cuddling session ever, until ..."Give us a cuddle!" The man appears and all the penguins, led by Dudley, turn and run! Jez Alborough was runner-up for the Mother Goose Award in 1985. For Walker Books he has written and illustrated "Cupboard Bear", "Willoughby Wallaby", "Beaky", "Esther's Trunk", "Where's My Teddy?" and its sequel "It's the Bear!".

social learning, 2008-03-03
Important book about social relationships for Pre-K. Great discussion starter for small groups of preschoolers.
Rip Off Artist, 2005-12-25
I don't know how this guy was legally able to do this.
It sickens, saddens, and disappoints me, to see the name of Ray Raynor's famous stuffed dog (a jewel of my own childhood memories), on the front cover of a completely unrelated children's book about a penguin.
Pathetic.
really a roller coaster book, 2002-10-17
this is really a roller coaster read aloud book -as mentioned by one of the other reviewers! as you read about the cuddly penguin Duddly, you get an opportunity to cuddle your own children at the end of almost each line! and i have a confession to make- not only do my kids love the book, i too have declared it to be my favorite book! the narration is so funny and cute.
A Really Fun Book!, 2000-05-23
Funny illustrations, a funny story--my five year old loves it! He first had it read to him at preschool and it was a big hit with all the children in the class. We then borrowed it from the library, and now we own it. It's great fun to read out loud! We like it a lot.
It was supurb!, 1999-07-22
Cuddly Duddly is a dramaticly powerful and moving story of Duddly, a penguin who leaves his brothers and sisters in search of a cuddle-free enviroment. The twistedly marvelous ending gives the story a romantic and comical finish. The book is an all out thriller that leaves you screaming with pleasure. It's a roller coaster in literature. You can't put the book down! It's a masterpiece!
