Pingu is not pleased about all the fuss mum and dad penguin are making over the egg that is about to hatch. In their excitement, they seem to forget all about Pingu, and he starts showing off to get their attention. They get cross, of course. And when the midwife penguin arrives to assist the birt, Pingu is even more left out. But when little sister finally works her way out of the egg, Pingu is quite willing to help clean her up. Then they take a picture of the whole family. A very basic story.
