But when he sees a line of happy yellow ducklings, he has a thought. What if he could be a duck? With a few duck lessons from Duck, Bear learns that being a duck is fun; but as it turns out, Bear realizes he makes a really good bear ...and he makes a really good friend along the way. Young readers will delight in the hilarious relationship between Bear and Duck.
Debut author/illustrator Hudson delights readers with expressive, endearing characters and sweetly ridiculous situationsA charming story of friendship and acceptance, distinguished by humorous and affectionate illustrations. -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ...the text has a cozy, Milne-infused flavor, with lots of lively dialogue.

Katy Hudson grew up in Middlesbrough, England, and started her illustration career as a small child drawing on freshly painted walls around the house! Her parents quickly dissuaded her from using this medium and encouraged her to draw with pencil and paper instead. The idea stuck (the pencil was updated to an inkpot and pen in some cases), and after some lovely time at art college and a degree in illustration, Katy is now a freelance illustrator based in Greenwich, London. This is her first picture book.
