Meet the Pudgy Penguins! In their first-ever picture book, the instantly iconic characters that became a viral sensation discover that the wrong gift can ruin a birthday-but best friends can make it right!

It's Pongo's birthday, and the Pudgy Penguins have ordered a very special gift: a pair of balloon swords. But when Pongo opens the box . . . the swords are not made of smushy balloons at all. They are toy swords. With pointy edges. And as Pongo gleefully brandishes his new swords all over town, he has no idea it's the wrong gift!

Before things go completely off the rails, the other Pudgy Penguins have to work fast to fix the mistake-without hurting Pongo's feelings. And if they don't? Well. This could turn out to be the worst birthday ever!

From web phenomenon and global sensation Pudgy Penguins comes a debut picture book featuring their iconic characters and a tale of friendship, penguins, jousting, and what to do when things go very, very wrong.
