by Steve Small (S&S £12.99, 32 pp)
We’ve all heard the expression ‘takes to it like a duck to water’ but not this Duck, who would far rather snuggle up with a good book in a warm, dry house than get his webbed feet wet.
When a young, lost frog who’d moved in with him returns to his river home, Duck realises that he’s lonely and braves a scary journey to find him again.
A joyful celebration of friendship overcoming your fears.
THE DUCK WHO DIDN’T LIKE WATER by Steve Small, pictured left, and right, THE ROCK FROM THE SKY by Jon Klassen
. . . are you reading now?
Three books at the moment. The first is not yet published, but I’ve been given the bound proof. It’s the new children’s book from Kiran Millwood Hargrave, called Julia And The Shark.
Ten-year-old Julia is the narrator. Her story is a seascape; there’s a lighthouse and storms and wild weather. Also, there are the lights and storms and wildness of people learning to live together.
I’ve loved Kiran’s books since The Way Past Winter, but this one is extra special. It has wonderful illustrations too, by Tom de Freston.
