He doesn't quack, and he never waddles. Instead, he bounces. And bing-boings! Being different isn't always easy for Five, but boy oh boy, having an extra spring and s-t-r-e-t-c-h in his step sure comes in handy when an unwelcome (and hungry) visitor comes creeping.          Fur and feathers fly and the underduckling prevails in this hilarious barnyard yarn.     Everyone is Special Watch out what you eat when you are expecting! Mama duck nibbled a rubber band along with a clump of grass before giving birth. When she hatched her brood, the fifth duckling bounced rather than waddled, and cried, "Bing-boing" instead of the typical "Quack, quack." This delightful tale is all about being different, or special with true potential, as only a mother could declare. Five's rubbery legs were good for strumming accompaniments to sing-alongs and lassoing bullies but his greatest act of bravery was to stand against the fox, using his special talents to protect his family. As a speech language pathologist, I always encourage parents to expand on a book. Take the opportunity to discuss with your child how friends are different, what special talents we all have--maybe a good listener, helper or storyteller--and celebrate differences.  for more information click here products you might be interested in search for books ducky, legged, rubber, rubber-legged      toavi.com    web randomly chosen DVD: Eragon (Two-Disc Special Edition)
