Bookroo's summary
A brave little duck returns to her pond, only to find it frozen. As she shivers and slides, she must decide whether to wait for spring or warm her world with imagination. Will her thoughts bring the pond back to life, or will she remain in the cold? This charming tale of resilience and hope unfolds with delightful rhymes and enchanting illustrations, capturing the essence of spring's promise.
From the publisher
What’s a cold little duck to do when she races the spring thaw to her home pond and wins? She could shiver, slip, slide, and shake–or think lovely, warm thoughts until nature comes through and brings the pond splashing and quacking to life once again. Lisa Westberg Peters and Sam Williams are inspired harbingers of spring in this irresistible story that’s also an unrivaled read-aloud featuring enchanting rhyme and repetition and absolutely winsome illustrations of the cold (but brave!) little duck.Children’s Pick of the Lists 2000(ABA) 2001 Notable Children’s Books (ALA)
