About the Author
Teri Sloat met an attentionseeking duck at a bus stop one day, and she’s sure this is the story he wanted to tell. She lives in Sebastapol, California.
From Booklist
PreS-Gr. 2. Compressing a lot of growing up into a few pages, Sloat offers young "ducklings" a healthy dose of self-esteem as well as a way to connect with their fathers. With unconcealed delight, a hatchling discovers his identity: "I'm a duck. Yup, by some magnificent stroke of good luck, I'm a duck!" His self-regard takes a series of quantum leaps as he learns to quack, swim, and fly. Then, fast-forwarding, he meets a female ("There's a strut in my waddle now. I've got a wife! I tell you, this girl has changed my whole life") and later witnesses the arrival of the next generation. Finally, as he paddles with 10 fuzzy new arrivals, the proud papa proclaims, "Of all the magnificent luck that I've had, nothing beats being a duck and a . . . DAD!" Illustrated with cozy wetland scenes and vignettes in rich greens and yellows, this has a child-friendly look but seems addressed as much to parents--particularly dads--as to kids. John Peters
