Author Description

"When mother mallard takes her 12 ducklings to spend their first night near the water, the ducklings are more interested in all that the night shows them?than in safely resting under their mother's wings." ?Booklist "As in McCloskey's Make Way for Ducklings, an aura of security pervades the simple, descriptive text and lovely art here, making this a wonderful introduction to wildlife observation." ?
