Little Duck’s Big Day

By Nicki Greenham

Every night Little Duck and Eva had a bath before bed.

Eva’s school were having a duck race.

Are you ready Little Duck?

The other ducks were bigger than him.

He couldn’t keep up.

And when the race finished he couldn’t stop.

The river took him through a tunnel

Under a bridge

Down a waterfall

And out into the sea, all alone.

But was he alone?

He swam with the whales.

He danced with the dolphins.

He soared with the birds.

And made it back to the beach.

Back to Eva, just in time...

…for a bath before bed.

Eva and Little Duck always have a bath before bed, but one day everything changes.

How will Little Duck get home?
