Like Kirby Lawson and Mary Nethery's Two Bobbies: A True Story of Hurricane Katrina, Friendship, and Survival, this tale of penguins caught up in a natural disaster presents children with an animal's perspective on Hurricane Katrina, emphasizing that people aren't alone, in bearing the brunt of nature's fury during these terrible events. Although I didn't find this as moving as the story of the 'Two Bobbies' - somehow, Patience's patience wasn't as touching as the two Bobbies' devotion to one another - and found the ways in which the penguins here were anthropomorphized occasionally unconvincing (would the penguins really care about coming home to New Orleans, when they were happy in their new home, or was that more of a human concern?), A Penguin Named Patience was still an engaging book, sure to appeal to young animal lovers.
