Abigail the Killer whale is a very large killer whale. She carries with her a soft voice, a shy demeanor and a gentle personality. You can see the shy girly side of Abigail by noticing the teddy bear knapsack that she carries aound with her wherever she goes. When Abigail meets new creatures they tend to be scared of her due to her enormous size. This has led Abigail to recognize that she is different and lead her to believe that being different is bad. The life lesson for Abigail is the realization that differences are good and we all have our part to play in society. We all come in different sizes, shapes and colors, and this is what makes us special.
With the help of her friends, Abigail will finally be able to see that being different is the best way to be

Character Profiles Part 7. Who is Dunsford the Walrus?
Dunsford the walrus is the stereotypical proper british chap who believes in manners and style and doing the right thing. Dunsford is a worldly walrus and is considered quite an intellect amongst his peers. If you want to know anything about the world, from arts and history to science or world events, Dunsford is the walrus to see. He has a lot to offer his friends and could be quite an effective mentor if he just had a little more patience. You see, the problem with Dunsford is that instead of accepting that everybody has different abilities, Dunsford gets frustrated when somebody doesnt know what he knows or of they disagree with his opinion.
The challenge that Dunsford faces on a daily basis is patience. He has to learn that everybody knows different things and have different strengths and weaknesses. Dunsford needs to accept everybody as they are and not be so critical of what they know or how they act. If Dunsford could learn to not judge everyone so harshly, he would then start seeing everyones unique gifts that they can share with the world.
Stay tuned for the last post in Character Profiles. We will be discussing the last but not least character in the Joey the Penguin series, Abigail the Killer Whale.....
Peace Out,

Character Profiles Part 6. Who is Camille the Seal?
Camille the seal is a leopard seal who truly believes that she is the most beautiful creature in the world. Instead of focusing on personality, health or happiness, Camille focuses on her looks and spends endless amount of energy staring at herself through mirror like pieces of ice .
Camille is not a bad person, but she needs to learn to focus on what is more important in life. beauty is not skin deep and the challenge she faces is the understanding that external beauty is not as important when compared to what is inside.
Camille will eventually figure this out through the help of her Antarctic friends.
Stay tuned for the next blog where we will learn more about Dunsford the walrus.
Have a great week!

Character Profiles Part 5. Who is Gills the Shark?
Gills the shark is the bully of the sea that is angry and not really sure why. Gills represents the guy that everybody had at school who felt that it was okay to push people around. Gills wants to have friends deep down inside, but due to his own insecurities he holds onto his anger and lashes out against the animals that he encounters.
Thanks to Joey The Penguin and Friends, Gills eventually will be forced into a corner where he will have no choice but to give up his bullying ways and embrace the friendships with all of the animals in his community.
Gills will finally be able to see that a world of peace and love feels pretty good. :)

Character Profiles Part 4. Who is Edna the Octopus?
Who is Edna the Octopus?
The better question would be who isn't Edna the octopus?
Edna is a cute little octopus who represents the goodness in all of us; the goodness that we hide from society because we do not want to seem to vulnerable. Edna has 8 tentacles, 2 of which she uses to walk and the other 6 she uses to hug everybody who wants or needs a hug. Edna does not have a bad bone in her body. She loves the world and everybody in it, spending her free time helping anybody who needs it. The only negative trait about Edna is that she gives too much of herself to everybody and does not do enough for herself. Edna is just as special as everybody else and she should take care of herself better. Edna needs to learn to take care of herself as well as her friends. This is a lesson that other people in the world struggle with as well. Giving too much of yourself is almost as bad as not doing enough for others. In life we should have a happy balance where we do nice things for everybody including ourselves.
Stay tuned for Part 5 of Character Profiles where we highlight the next character in the "Joey the Penguin" series, "Gills the shark".
Have a great week!

Character Profiles Part 3. Who is Squeedo the Squid?
Who is Squeedo the Squid?
Squeedo is a tough acting little squid that believes you have to always act cool for people to like you. He is a little insecure in the fact that he doesn't realize that his friends like him for him and not for the way that he acts. In reality Squeedo isn't very tough at all. In fact, inside he is quite the opposite. He is afraid that the animals wouldn't like the squid that he really is. The sad part is that they do and he would enjoy his day a lot better if he learned this simple lesson. All of the Antarctic friends are helping Squeedo to realize this which should serve as a lesson to all boys and girls out there that it is important to be yourself, because being yourself is always the coolest way to be.
Stay tuned for Part 4 of Character profiles where we will be discussing Edna the Octopus. :)

Character Profiles Part 2. Who is Preston the Polar Bear?
Who is Preston the Polar Bear?
Preston is an easy going polar bear from Canada that doesnt get too excited about much except for one thing. Global Warming. He knows that Global warming is causing his fellow polar bears to run out of ice which means that pretty soon they will have nowhere to live. Because of this Preston is an advocate of preventing pollution and living Green. Preston will preach to anybody who will listen to the importance of reducing, reusing and of course recycling. An example of reducing would be not to let the water run when you are brushing your teeth. Preston understands that if we minimize the amount of energy and resources that we waste, recycle everything that we can and use products over and over gain when we can, then we can really make a difference in the world. Preston believes that it it is time to save the planet, and we can if we follow those three easy steps known as the three R's. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
Preston believes that we can fight Global Warming by being Green and we can do this one animal at a time. :)
Stay tuned for next week as we continue with Part 3 of the series, " Who is Squeedo the squid?"
