| The beloved Baby Duck is back -- in a special story for her youngest fans. |

It’s a big book filled with pictures of Baby Duck! There she is on the day she was born, and right after a bath, and taking her first wobbly steps. Baby likes what she sees, and she loves spending time with Grampa. Little listeners who adore being the center of attention are sure to share Baby’s enthusiasm -- before running off to find their own family photo albums! |
