One Little Duck

The classic 'Five Little Ducks' meets We're Going on a Bear Hunt and I Went Walking in an irresistibly fresh, cute and clever picture book that pre-schoolers will love.

One little duck went out one day,

over the hills and far away.

Mother Duck said ...

'Moo Moo Moo Moo,'

and Cow said, 'Wait! Now I'm coming too.'

Oh no, Mother Duck has forgotten how to quack!

Every day, she tries a new barnyard call, and every night Little Duck returns with a new farm friend.

A fun twist on the song 'Five Little Ducks', this delightful story from the award-winning duo Katrina Germein and Danny Snell is destined to become a new classic.
