The little wood duck keeps swimming around and around in circles even though all of the other animals tease him. "I do try," he says to himself. "But I just can't swim any other way." But when a hungry fox comes looking for a meal, the little wood duck saves the day. The fox feels dizzy after watching the duckling swim round and round for so long. "Oh dear!" gasps the fox, and falls flat on his back, allowing all of the ducklings to run safely home.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
