El Pinguino Taky (Tacky the Penguin)

Tacky’s quirky personality feels so distinct and fun. I wonder if the author based him on a real animal or just aimed to make kids laugh.

His antics are so unapologetic — I’m curious if readers see him as a role model for self-acceptance or just comic relief.

The illustrations really bring out Tacky’s playful spirit. I wonder how much collaboration there was between the author and illustrator to achieve that tone.
