Do Dare Duck

Penguin Shop: 3 Clothbound Classics for £33

The soft yet energetic illustrations are a perfect foil to the text and make this an altogether charming experience. Jane Massey knows how to get the best from watercolour and textures, while Joyce Dunbar knows how to be original. What better way to introduce little ones to a love of language and image?

An engaging, alliterative, tongue twisting read-aloud...the illustrations are fun, and certainly hold the attention of young readers.

Does Duck dazzle as much as the peacock? Does he dawdle like the tortoise, or does he dash like the hare? No? Well, what does Duck do? Does Duck . . . dare?<br/>
<br/>
A gorgeous new story from the author of TELL ME SOMETHING HAPPY BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP and the illustrator of DADDY IS MY HERO.

Find out if Duck dares in this hilarious, rhythmic read!
