And Tango Makes Three cover

And Tango Makes Three (Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, April 26 2005 ISBN 0-689-87845-1) is a children's book, based on the true story of Roy and Silo, two penguins from a New York zoo who are a couple. The story follows their real life, where they tried to procreate unsuccessfully so they then tried to hatch a rock that resembled an egg. When zookeepers realized that they were two boys and that they were trying to hatch a rock they remembered that one of the opposite-sex penguin couples had had an extra egg and abandoned it. The zookeepers then made the switch of egg and rock, and the penguin husbands raised the healthy young chick, "Tango" together as a family. Written by Peter Parnell and Justin Richardson and illustrated by Henry Cole. Image File history File links Tangopenguin. ... Image File history File links Tangopenguin. ...
