Everyone needs a little help to get through the day—and who better to provide it than Koupen-chan, the adorable baby penguin who has stolen Japan's heart! Did you cook a meal, show up for work, or just get out of bed in the morning? Koupen-chan is here to say, "You are amazing!"
This charming book from Japanese illustrator Rurutea features 300 charming illustrations of Koupen-chan and friends enjoying the simple joys in life and showing up for one another with a hug and an encouraging word.
Each page has an uplifting message such as:
- Great job taking it easy!
- You ate breakfast! I'm proud of you!
- Getting stuff done on a Saturday? You're amazing.
- Doing things the usual way is good enough.
- Fantastic job studying! I'm cheering for you!
Koupen-chan's supportive friends include Adelie, a tough-talking penguin who likes to cook; Evil Enaga, a cute bird plotting to take over the world; and Polar Bear, who is always ready to share a wise lesson. They bring gentle humor to the book, reminding us that life can be complicated and challenging but also deeply fulfilling when you accept yourself as you are.
