Tacky the Penguin

Tacky is an odd bird. All the other penguins greet each other politely, sing beautifully and dive gracefully. Tacky slaps everyone on the back, marches one, two, three, six, sings nonsense songs and loves a great splash with a cannonball. ONe day the sound of thump, thump, thump is heard off in the distance. This can only mean one thing: hunters. The other penguins run and hide behind a huge chunk of ice. Tacky alone faces the enemy armed with his hearty slap, his wacky walk and his silly songs. All of this vastly confuses the hunters who know a penguin when they see or hear one. Off they go with their hands over their ears to find the real penguins. That Tacky-he may be an odd bird but he's awfully nice to have around.
