Flop down!
Roll over!
Say what's for supper!
Everyone in our family knows this cheer and it is most certainly beloved. Both my sons laugh so hard they cry when we read this. It's true - Tacky is an odd bird, but he's a nice bird to have around. |

This is great. All the penguin schools are competing in a cheering contest, and the WINNERS get big blue RIBBONS. (There's a great image of all the penguins imagining themselves wearing blue ribbons. Tacky pictures his around his feet!)
So after they firmly explain to Tacky that, on a TEAM everybody is the SAME, they practice their routine. Repeatedly. One, two, three - LEFT! One, two, three - RIGHT! Stand up, sit down, say good night!
Tacky has a few... problems with it. Naturally. But he finally gets it right... and they find out that the non-penguin judges think all the other contestants are boring as heck! Luckily, Tacky can't get it right forever, and by being weird and cool at the same time, he Saves the Day!
The other penguins never are shown mocking Tacky for being different, which is a nice change of pace for this type of book. |

| We [as in preschooler and I] are new to the Tacky series of books, and this was our first purchase. I must say I was rather impressed by the wonderful message contained within this cute story about the little misfit penguin Tacky who wins the day by being himself. Tacky and his group of friends are working on a cheer routine for a contest, and Tacky doesn't seem to get the hang of the routine. His other cheermates have the routine down pat, but the routine itself seems to be rather monotonous. When the contest starts, all the other groups' routines fail to impress the judges, and it is left to Tacky and co. to present a winning routine. Will Tacky go with the flow, or does the misfit penguin actually have something up his sleeve to win the day? The illustrations are cute, but what I liked most about the book was the effective manner in which the message of celebrating being one's self is brought across. Recommended! |

| Tacky is just adorable. Kids love these books. It's great to see a book that applauds individuality! Tacky is one of a kind, and kids find his antics amusing, and so will the adults reading these delightful stories to their kids. All the Tacky books are worth the read. |

| I have been a fan of the Tacky books for years. This is one of a charming series of books about a misfit penguin and the way his "differences" make him special. In this book, Tacky joins a group of type A penguins and teaches them that you don't have to be perfect to be great. Unlike a lot of children's books, Tacky books are not preachy or too-sweet, just quirky and fun. Now that my own kids have outgrown them, I always buy Tacky books as gifts for other people's kids. |

| "Three Cheers for Tacky" is about a penguin who wants to be just like everybody else/fit in with the rest of the crowd. He tries his best to copy the other penguins in trying to walk with his nose up straight in the air, he tries out for the cheer squad for the competition, and he tries to make a new cheer. It teaches that you can do anything that you want to do if you try hard enough, and by trying harder, you just might be able to do what you've always wanted to do. This is about a 1st- 2nd grade book. Yes, the book is very good and I recommend this to anyone who would want to read a humorous story. |
