The Duck Who Came for Dinner (Paperback) - Steve Smallman

The fifth book in the bestselling The Lamb Who Came for Dinner series, packed with wit and personality from Steve Smallman (Poo in the Zoo, Monkey With a Bright Blue Bottom, and Bear's Big Bottom) and illustrated with warmth by Joelle Dreidemy. One windy day, a little duck blows into Wolf's backyard. Wolf and Hotpot call her Apple, and together they nurse her wonky wing back to health. But though she may be small, Apple is one plucky duck, and it's not long before she is flying to their rescue. This heartwarming story encourages readers to challenge stereotypes and look beyond the surface. The Duck Who Came for Dinner is the perfect story to share with existing fans of Wolf and Hotpot's adventures and readers of The Lion Inside by Rachel Bright and Jim Field, Weirdo by Zadie Smith, Nick Laird, and Magenta Fox, and The Duck Who Didn't Like Water by Steve Small.
