Special Delivery

The snow was falling sideways, the kind of dramatic, overachieving snowstorm that makes even polar bears consider calling in sick. But not Pip. With his earmuffs pulled low and his scarf flapping like a heroic little flag behind him, the tiny penguin marched on, clutching his small package like it contained the secrets of the universe… or at least something extremely important, like socks or snacks.

Each step was a wobble, each wobble a victory. Snowflakes tried to slow him down, the wind tried to turn him into a feathery tumbleweed, but Pip was on a mission. He didn’t know exactly who the package was for (addresses are tricky when you don’t have pockets), but he did know it had to arrive. And so he shuffled bravely into the storm, proving that even the smallest delivery penguin can be the biggest hero on a snowy day.
