It all starts in a village of Penguinia, where a little penguin called Chapik lives with his mom. On the morning of his birthday, Chapik finds a note from his mom telling him that she went to pick up his gift and will be back soon. Meanwhile a huge blizzard started to form outside and his mom wasn't back yet. Chapik starts to worry and decides to venture out to find her. He is scared, cold, little and lonely but he still finds courage to look for his mom. During his quest, Chapik meets various characters (some are more helpful than others). He also learns that he is brave, determined and caring and always ready to help anyone he loves dearly.
