Book Introduction
A donut truck appears at the beach!
What is the true identity of Penta, the suspicious penguin with a donut on its head?


Penguin Penta makes delicious donuts at the beach in the summer.
When you wear a large donut on your head and make hot donuts, the delicious smell will soon draw customers to your truck.
Each guest orders a special donut from Penta.
The donuts made by Penta have strange shapes, but they each have their own unique character and taste great.
Then an elephant guest came to visit.
“Please give me the big donut you’re wearing on your head.” As Penta was panicking and feeling embarrassed, a voice calling for help was heard from somewhere.
Upon hearing the sound, Penta finds a pig in the water with the telescope hanging around his neck, takes off the donut he was wearing on his head with a 'pop!' and flings it at the pig with a 'whirlwind!'

When Penta's true identity is revealed after he successfully saves a drowning pig, we can finally understand Penta's somewhat awkward behavior that we had seen earlier.
Following the "Bread Thief" series, Keiko Shibata's uniquely quirky imagination, ingenious twists, and even delicious donuts! Discover "Donut Penta," filled with adorable illustrations and a delightful story!

Then an elephant came.

“I want the big donut the owner is wearing on his head.”

Penta said in surprise.

“It’s difficult because this isn’t for sale.”
“It looks so pretty, I bet it tastes good too.”

The elephant didn't give up.

The donut Penta was using was puffed up and looked delicious to anyone who saw it.

‘The donut shape… why is it like this?’
The truth about the suspicious penguin Penta and the donut hat!

A donut truck arrived at a beach full of animals playing in the water under the hot sun.
The owner of the truck is Penguin Penta.
Penta's donut truck, with its giant donut hat on its head, soon attracted everyone with its delicious and sweet donut smell.

But customers who order the specially shaped donuts start to have small doubts about Penta's true identity.
The donuts Penta made tasted great, but the shape was a bit awkward.
While the guests were confused for a few times, an elephant guest saw a large donut on Penta's head and asked for it, saying that it looked delicious.
After hearing the elephant guest's order, the other guests also started asking for Penta's donut hat.
Penta looked flustered, as if he was hiding something and didn't know what to do.

Then, suddenly, a rescue call of “Help me!” is heard from the beach.
At that sound, Penta, who was quietly making donuts, quickly uses the binoculars hanging around his neck to determine the location, and throws the donut above his head to wonderfully save the pig from drowning in the water.
The animals who witnessed this scene realized that the donut was actually a tube needed for water rescue.
And the fact that Penta, who made donuts, was an amazing lifeguard.
