The Story about Ping by Marjorie Flack

Since 1933, The Story About Ping has captivated generations of readers, but never before has it been available in a mass-market paperback format. No one can deny the appeal of the book's hero, Ping, the spirited little duck who lives on a boat on the Yangtze River. Ping's misadventures one night while exploring the world around his home form the basis of this timeless classic, which is brought to life by Kurt Wiese's warm and poignant illustrations.

Marjorie Flack (1897-1958) was a well-known author and illustrator of children's books, notably The Tale About Ping and The Boats on the River, which won the Caldecott Medal in 1947.
