A NYC couple, one a psychiatrist and the other a playwrite, read a newspaper story about a penguin couple at the Central Park Zoo. When the chinstrap penguins paired up to start families, Roy and Silo, both males, built a nest and took tuns sitting on an egg-shaped rock. When another penguin laid an egg she couldn't care for, zookeepers gave it to Roy and Silo who took turns keeping the egg warm until it hatched and then they all lived together happily. The two authors published their (often banned) book about the little family in 2005. The are Peter Parnall and Justin Richardson, and their book is And Tango Makes Three.
