What’s a fed-up duck who feels all out of luck supposed to do? Go and ask a wise owl for help, of course! But watch out for the hungry Fox . . . From the award-winning Gemma Merino, author of the The Crocodile Who Didn’t Like Water, The Duck With No Luck is a funny, uplifting and reassuring tale about how to tackle the ups and downs of life, take a more positive look at things and appreciate all you have. After a particularly unlucky moment, Duck has had enough! Heading off to ask Wise Owl why he’s so unlucky, he comes across a lonely swan, a hungry fox and a bare tree, all looking for answers of their own. Will Wise Owl’s advice help Duck to find his luck after all? And has he just been looking in the wrong place all along?
