Eighty-five-year-old Veronica McCreedy is estranged from her family and wants to find a worthwhile cause to leave her fortune to. When she sees a documentary about penguins being studied in Antarctica, she tells the scientists she's coming to visit-and won't take no for an answer. Shortly after arriving, she convinces the reluctant team to rescue an orphaned baby penguin. He becomes part of life at the base, and Veronica's closed heart starts to open. Her grandson, Patrick, follows Veronica to Antarctica to make one last attempt to get to know his grandmother. Together, Veronica, Patrick, and even the scientists learn what family, love, and connection are all about"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Prior (pbk) Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Prior   Item being held   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction PRIOR Realistic Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked out 06/14/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Prior Pbk Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Prior   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
