Author Description

She has blue eyelash extensions and a butterfly tattoo, oh and she just happens to be a yellow duck who doesn't sleep out on the water, but in a very comfy princess size bed if you don't mind! Dukki is making her debut in this story, aimed at young children, as a fire fighter in her fun and vivid dreams. Putting out fires, climbing ladders and even saving a stranded kitten. Dukki can be anyone or anything she wants to be, an important message for all children. On this occasion she is fire fighter... next time it could be a sports duck, a chef, a detective or even a handy duck. The possibilities are endless. Dukki is the creation of Nottingham born author/illustrator Daizi Rae who knows exactly how important it is for diversity to be a part of every day life, for all our lives. It needs to be as normal as fish and chip Friday or pulling on your pants of a morning.
