Synopsis

A follow-up to Doody's utterly charming Capelin Weather, The Puffin Problem answers the unlikely question: ""What would happen if St. John's had an infestation of puffins?"" With quiet wit and whimsy, Doody reveals what happens when Newfoundland and Labrador's official bird heads for the bright city lights. This puffin problem needs an imaginative solution, and a smart, small person comes up with the just the trick to get those birds back out to sea. Young readers will have great fun finding all the puffins hiding in Doody's lovely illustrations. Older readers will enjoy how the illustrations also play with the province's already playful language. There's something for readers of every age on every page. The book includes some fun and interesting puffin facts as well.
