Description
Publisher's Description of Make Way for Ducklings
Mrs. Mallard was sure that the pond in the Boston Public Gardens would be a perfect place for her and her eight ducklings to live. But when the busy streets of Boston become too risky for her and her family to navigate, the local police step in to make sure Mrs. Mallard and her ducklings—Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Ouack, Pack, and Quack—make it to their new home safely. A beautiful portrayal of one duck family’s devotion and perseverance, this board book is a wonderful representation of how families overcome hard times together and a compassionate reminder to trust in the goodness of humanity. Let the Mallard family waddle right off the page and into your child’s heart!
