One Duck Stuck

This colorful counting book tells the story of a duck who has gotten one foot stuck in the muck of a marsh. In quick succession verious groups of animals try to set the victim free, but none are successful. Finally, when they all work together, they are successful. Written by Phyllis Root with colorful illustrations byJane Chapman, it is partly a counting book, but with lots of fun word play for parents to read to preschoolers, or for early readers to try on their own.
