Soft is a penguin who works for the California Highway Patrol in 1970s Los Angeles. His official rank is First Officer. A rash of bank robberies is erupting at Wells & Penguin locations across the city. Soft, on his motorcycle, is in hot pursuit of the robbers, who always flee in a red Camaro. Will Soft ever catch them?

The Case of Wells & Penguin is the twenty-seventh book that has resulted from student work in Kid Scribes, a creative writing and desktop publishing class conducted by Excelsus Foundation at schools and other nonprofits nationwide.
