Pocket Penguins

Pocket Penguins is a series of books released by Penguin Classics in 2016.[1] The series echoes the style of the original Penguin Books, with smaller A-format size, and tri-band design.[2][3] The first 20 books were released in May 2016, and described by publishing director Simon Winder as "a mix of the famous and the unjustly overlooked".[1]
