Pyla the penguin always thought there was more to life than snow and ice - and that he might be good at more than shuffling about on top of it. But when his royal uncle, the King Penguin, sends him off to get some skills in the big wide world, Pyla's in for more adventure than he could ever imagine . . . After some rather icy escapades and flying food, Pyla makes an unlikely friend. Surely his new companion can keep him on the straight and narrow, right? Wrong! Before you can say 'igloo', Pyla and his new friend are zooming off on a globe-trotting job-hunting journey, leaving a trail of calamity behind them. With a wild bull chase, dental disasters, desert digging, zoo chaos, bank robbers and having a (rather loud!) blast in London, can Pyla keep out of trouble long enough to learn a thing or two?
