Just Ducks! by Nicola Davies

Just Ducks! by Nicola Davies

From spring right through to winter … there they are! Down on the river! Quack quuuack, Quack-quaack-quack… What do you know about ducks? I bet you know that they quack … a lot! Well, discover much more in this book that’s all about, well, just ducks! Learn all about which is a boy duck and which is a girl, why some quack louder and others softer. Find out what they eat when it is cold outside and where they perch their bottoms to sleep!

The chief charm of this book is not only that it does not overload children with information but that it is illustrated by Salvatore Rubbino who shows off an irresistible, breezy talent as he illustrates a day in the life of ducks Guardian
