From the Inside Flap

"Did I come in one of those eggs?" Duckling asked his Daddy. "You did," Daddy said. "Your egg was lovely!"

When Mommy Duck lays a pale blue egg, Duckling is very surprised to learn what the egg is for. Duckling is even more surprised to discover that Grandpa came in an egg, too.

But who will be coming in this one - and when? Will it ever be quacking time on the lake? With the help of a patient big sibling, it just might be soon.
