'They looked like knights in armor as they went in search of little rabbits, partridges and pheasants.' Mr. Bobbin decides it must be great to look so bold, and he also longs for a gun to clean and polish. But when he aims his gun at the squirrel, pheasant, duck, fox, and opossum he meets, he's too delighted by their habits and smarts to shoot. Still, each day that he heads home he mutters to himself that it was a good day: 'I had a nice walk through the fields.' Later, when he's too old to hunt--in a moment nearly 50 years a precursor to the existence of Amos McGee--all the creatures whose lives he spared go visit him.

Poor Jemima. All she wants to do is lay her eggs in peace, and be allowed to hatch them herself. At last she flies off and finds the perfect place. Little does the silly duck realise that the charming gentleman who has lent her his woodshed is busily planning a delicious meal of . . . roast duck! Jemima was a real duck belonging to Beatrix Potter, who lived at her farm, Hill Top. The story also features Beatrix's own sheepdog, Kep, who thankfully manages to save Jemima from a nasty fate! Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, published by Frederick Warne in 1902, she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs. Tiggy-winkle, Benjamin Bunny, Jemima Puddle-duck, Mr. Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood. With revenue from the sales of her books, Beatrix Potter bought a farm - Hill Top - in the English Lake District, where she later became a farmer and prize-winning sheep breeder. She launched the now vast merchandise programme by patenting the very first Peter Rabbit doll in 1903. The product range continues to grow today with licences around the world including baby clothing and bedding, nursery decor products and collectables. Upon her death, Beatrix Potter left 14 farms and over 4000 acres of Lake District farmland to the National Trust so that the place that she loved would remain undeveloped and protected for future generations to enjoy. Today Beatrix Potter's original 23 tales are still published by Frederick Warne, alongside a wide range of other formats including baby books, activity books and gift and sound books. The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck is number nine in Beatrix Potter's series of 23 little books.

Boynton's signature style gives zany animation to her trademark cartoon characters (dog, rabbit and moose, for starters). Facial expression undergoes minor adjustments to convey depth, through slight spacing between the eyes or the angled slant of the nose. Springy rhythmic phrases engage the audience. \"Perhaps, like a pig, you are SWEETLY AMUSED, \/ Or perhaps, like a cow, you're COMPLETELY CONFUSED.\" Pacing naturally rolls along through its conversational voice and irreverent asides. \"You might feel that, somehow, you've lost all your fizz. \/ Or you're FRAZZLED LIKE A... um...FRAZZLED THING. (I'm not sure what it is.\") Some lighthearted fun with a nugget of truth, but it's all at the stodgy bird's expense. 'And a difficult mood is not here to stay \/ Everyone's moods will change day to day \/ Unless you're that duck. \/ He's always this way.' Guaranteed to knock the bad mood out of anyone, duck included.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e- Kirkus Reviews July 1, 2011 *STAR\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSandra Boynton\u003c\/b\u003e is a popular American cartoonist, children's author, songwriter, producer, and director.

After more than five years of fighting, downcast, war-weary people were looking for signs of hope of a better future. One April morning, a duck searching for a nesting spot lands on a tall post sticking out of the Milwaukee River. Situated near a busy drawbridge and the noisy city of Milwaukee, this was an unlikely, precarious spot for a soon-to-be-mama duck to build her nest. But that is exactly where Gertie (named by a local reporter) decides to make her home and lay her eggs. Once local newspapers report the story, crowds begin visiting the bridge to watch Gertie and speculate how she will safely hatch her babies. Soon, news outlets around the world are carrying the hopeful tale of the plucky duck, raising spirits, and giving readers a shared sense of community.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShari Swanson\u003c\/strong\u003e earned her MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts.
