A young penguin, Squeaky, has difficulty speaking. He plays and swims like other young penguins but can only "squeak" to express himself. With family and community encouragement, a rhyming speech therapy game, and near the end of the story, amazing squeaking sounds from a team of wandering albatrosses, Squeaky says his first words to the joy of everyone, especially his South Polar Fishy Soup cooking mama and hiking expert papa.
