Never Touch the Pesky Penguins
Whatever You Do…Don’t Touch the Penguins!
They’re pesky.
They’re mischievous.
They’re disappearing one by one.
And they’re practically begging to be touched.
Never Touch the Pesky Penguins from Make Believe Ideas is a playful sensory board book that combines silly penguin antics with counting, rhyming and wonderfully bumpy silicone textures little hands will want to explore again and again.
Count Down the Pesky Penguins
Five penguins are busy causing mayhem—but one by one, they disappear from the story.
Little readers can follow along and practice counting down from five while discovering what those pesky penguins are getting into next.
Bright illustrations and playful rhymes make it especially fun to read aloud together.

Reading You Can Touch
We love books that invite kids to do more than sit and listen.
Little fingers can trace the bumpy textures, turn the sturdy pages, find the penguins and count along as they disappear.
That combination of touch + words + pictures + counting turns storytime into a hands-on experience.
And hands-on learning?
That’s very Moxie.
A Great Little Gift
Pair it with a cuddly penguin, tuck it into a Christmas gift or add it to a growing collection of Never Touch books.
It’s especially fun for toddlers and preschoolers who love books they can touch, explore and participate in.
Because sometimes the fastest way to get a little reader interested in a book is to tell them:
Whatever you do…don’t touch it.
