三隻飢腸轆轆的貓、一隻小企鵝,一個絕妙的犯罪計畫!
三隻餓昏的貓,突發奇想要綁架一隻企鵝來幫忙抓魚吃。牠們跑到動物園隨便綁了一隻企鵝出來,幸好可憐的肉票很快便逃離貓綁匪的掌控。故事就這麼結束了嗎?當然沒有。
企鵝身上的黑白毛色,正好幫助牠融入大城市中忙碌的人群,只見牠為了躲避貓咪們的追捕,一下子混充餐廳侍者、又隱身在一群修女當中。最後牠總算平安回到動物園,及時趕上一頓鮮魚大餐。至於三隻貓綁匪則得到應有的懲罰,牠們被關進大牢,只有稀飯可以吃啦!

Three hungry cats. One little penguin. The odds don't look good.
With bare cupboards and hungry bellies, three cats steal a penguin to catch them fish. A hilarious sequence of events unfolds as the penguin makes his escape, gets mistaken for a nun and a waiter, then finds his way safely home. Meanwhile, the cats are caught for their crime and sent to jail -- for a lifetime of gruel. Deftly told and beautifully illustrated by exciting debut author-illustrator Helen Hancocks.
