Overview of Mr. Popper's Penguins

A quiet house painter with big dreams of polar exploration has his life turned upside down when a penguin arrives on his doorstep—and soon, one penguin turns into a full-fledged flock. As his home transforms into a chilly haven for the birds, the family adapts to the unexpected chaos, eventually taking their performing penguins on the road to entertain audiences across the country. Along the way, they discover both the joys and the challenges of caring for wild animals, leading to a heartfelt decision about what’s best for their beloved penguins.
