Choosing your own friends is a whole lot more fun than having somebody else decide for you! Stuffed animals Duck and Penguin are not ready to be friends, despite what their owners Betty and Maud might have you think. Duck and Penguin do not want to swing together, build sandcastles together, and they certainly do not want to be forced to play baby dolls together!
But as soon as Betty and Maud aren't looking, Duck and Penguin happily whip up some fun of their own.
This laugh-out-loud tale from author-illustrator Julia Woolf is instantly relatable for any socially reluctant child and a humorous pick for read alouds.
