A touching story of an unusual but very special friendship. Growing up together, Hudson the Penguin and Gregory the Gull do everything together. Everything – except flying! The gulls laugh at Hudson for not being able to fly but, when Gregory gets trapped deep under the sea, it is Hudson who comes to the rescue. Best friends can have different skills – and still enjoy everything together.
Gregory the gull and Hudson the penguin are the best of friends. When Gregory learns to fly, Hudson feels left out. But when Gregory gets into trouble, it's Hudson who comes to his rescue, discovering he also has a wonderful skill.
