What happened when the penguins met the seals
chapter 18
chapter 18
Unbeknownst to Mr. Popper, they arrive at the wrong theater. They encounter Mr. Swenson, who has a pack of six seals he performs with. Mr. Swenson warns Mr. Popper to keep his penguins away from the Swenson seals, or they might be eaten. To Mr. Popper's horror, he realizes the penguins have already gotten away. The seals and penguins get together in a room at the theater, and Mr. Popper fears the worst. The police and fire department are called in. However, the penguins and seals are more curious than anything toward each other, and no penguin is eaten. The police and fire department show up, and for fun they put police caps on the seals and firemen caps on the penguins. The furious theater owner presses charges against Mr. Popper for ruining his show, and Mr. Popper and the penguins are arrested for disturbing the peace. Mr. Popper only now realizes he showed up at the wrong theater.
