Veronica McCreedy returns in the delightfully feel-good new audiobook from the number one best-selling author of Away with the Penguins - sure to become a firm favourite with listeners!

Meet the heroine everyone's talking about....

Fiercely resilient and impeccably dressed, Veronica McCreedy has lived an incredible 87 years. Most of them alone, in her huge house by the sea.

But Veronica has recently discovered a late-life love for family and friendship, adventure and wildlife.

More specifically, a love for penguins!

And so when she's invited to co-present a wildlife documentary, far away in the southern hemisphere, she jumps at the chance.

Even though it will put her in the spotlight, just when she thought she would soon fade into the wings.

Perhaps it's never too late to shine?

Unique storyline

I loved everything, The narrator, the character development, the pace etc. I need 4 more words.

Emotional and real

I loved the first book in this series, and this one is no different. The characters are grounded and keep you rooting for them the entire time, and though circumstances and a pointed environmental critique made this a more heartbreaking read at times, it was thoroughly enjoyable and worth the listen.

Charming

This was a lovely follow up to the first book. I was thrilled to learn more about the characters and follow their adventures. I wasn’t a big fan of the voice of Patrick changing but it didn’t affect my enjoyment of the story overall.

Entertaining Sequel

I enjoyed this sequel; it was fun to revisit Veronica and the other characters. The author makes a good point about plastics in the environment; hope people take heed to the dangers it poses to wildlife.

Decent sequel

Didn’t love this one as much as the first one. Seemed a bit drawn out in some portions of the story and cut short in others. Still an enjoyable light read
