The emperor penguins
I went to the zoo and saw the emperor penguins. They stood on their short legs. They were black and white with a small marking of yellow on their heads. The penguins were in a cold room at the zoo because they come from Antarctica, one of the coldest parts of the earth. They had a swimming pool because penguins spend much of their time in the water.
