Mallory the Forgetful Duck

Mallory is a very forgetful duck, so when she awakens from her nap she is puzzled...

"...Now where did I leave my nest? she wondered aloud..."

Mallory starts on a journey to locate her eggs and finds herself sitting on more than one mystery nest along the way - that is until the true mother comes along.

Mallory the Forgetful Duck by Elaine Allen is a fun and wonderfully educational picture book for young readers.  It takes you and your child through a series of mistaken identities and gently teaches about the wildlife habitat along the Chesapeake Bay region.

The illustrations by Kelli Nash are bright, colourful and full of detail - I especially adorn the one with Mallory asleep under a big purple bloom - fantastic!

This book is a must have for any child's library and will be read for generations to come.  Check it out on Amazon, Barnes & Noble or your local book retailer.

I give it two thumbs up!
