Description
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 modern classic.

About the Author
Katrina Germein is a bestselling picture book author whose books have been published around the world. Popular titles include Big Rain Coming and My Dad Thinks He's Funny, which was Highly Commended in the Prime Minister's Literary Awards. In 2019 Katrina received a Speech Pathology Book of the Year Award for Let's Go Strolling. Many of her other stories are CBCA Notable Books. Katrina is an ambassador for Raising Literacy Australia, a Books in Homes Role Model and a Premier's Reading Challenge Ambassador. She has an energetic dog named Mango and summer is her favourite season. As a child Danny Snell was a reluctant reader, so it was pictures rather than words that drew him to the wonder of books. Danny went on to study graphic design and illustration at the University of South Australia and he now works as a picture book illustrator and author. Danny illustrates using digital media, focusing on simple compositions, subtle texture and a touch of whimsy. His books have won a number of awards including the CBCA Eve Pownall Award, the Environment Award for Children's Literature, and The Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year Award. Danny lives in Adelaide with his partner, his two daughters and a sleepy old cat. He enjoys cooking and swimming, and yes, he loves to read.
