Opis

Make way for Daphne, a Muscovy duck in Florida, who wants to lay her eggs in a safe place. She discovers a flowerpot on a fifth floor balcony of a building near her pond. There she decides to nest even though it's far away from her mate, Drake. Each day she lays an egg and returns to the pond. After twelve days her time in the pot grows longer, and one day after a scary encounter with a crow, she stays all night. She misses Drake whom she's eager to see, but she patiently waits for her ducklings to hatch. When they're only a day old, she manages to get them off the balcony and flee a stalking cat, but will they reach the pond? Written in cadence with humor and charm and illustrated with warm, lush watercolors, this book for all ages is about a mother's love and her wish to protect her brood. Join Daphne on this exciting adventure based on a real life experience.
