Martin Waddell's uplifting modern fable and Helen Oxenbury's humor and pathos
make this a very special collaboration.
Farmer Duck isn't your average duck. This duck cooks and cleans, tends the
fields, and cares for the other animals on the farm--all because the owner of
the farm is too lazy to do these things himself. But when Farmer Duck finally
collapses from exhaustion, the farmyard animals come to the rescue with a simple
but heroic plan. "From the Trade Paperback edition."
