Verônica e os pinguins

The penguins felt so real and heartwarming—I'm curious whether their behavior was based on real animals or pure fiction. Did the author have a specific penguin story in mind?

Her growth and resilience really resonated with me, especially in how she found new purpose later in life. How did others interpret her transformation?

The tone shifts felt seamless, making the story uplifting without losing depth. I'm wondering if this was a deliberate choice to reflect real life’s complexities.
