Yes, what happened to the duck?

Sorry. This story hour is for Mimi. You’ll just have to wait until the next time I read to her.

News flash—he could read it for himself.

When I was a child many, many years ago, my mother would recite, from memory, a story about “The Little Red Hen.” The routine was comforting, the story identical every night, and I would drift off before her recitation was complete. I can’t recall how it ended ….

and he also went to sleep. The End.

If they don’t find out what happened to the duck, he’ll have trouble sleeping tonight.

“Asking for the monkey.”

ALWAYS read the end first, Corky. . .

Hand Corky the book, and he can read it himself.

But we’re just getting to the good part.

The duck becomes a WereDuck

Why a duck?

“The wayward duck looked toward the moon and realized that it would never find its way home, as it had joined the crew of the Flying Dutchman.”

“Why a duck?”

Some people need to know.

They have used that particular plotline a number of times. Always cute.

Just like when I was reading the “I Survived the Destruction of Pompeii” book to my grandson. It took several nights just to get to the part where Mount Vesuvius erupts.
