A sweet, joyful and charmingly funny springtime picture book celebrating the determination of a little duckling who finds inventive ways to keep up with his family.

Mamma Duck and her ducklings are paddling to the pond. But the littlest duck, Puck, keeps falling behind… “Keep up, Duck!” his mama quacks. But Puck is determined. Even if he can’t swim very fast, he will find a way to keep up!

The youngest of readers will soon be joining in with Mamma Duck’s irresistible refrain in this bouncy picture book from the illustrator of children’s favourite, Do Like a Duck Does!
