Yes | No“McClosky's simple ink drawings showcase ducks full of personality and a city (Boston) full of life and activity. The story which can be a bit long for the younger kids is still sweet and comforting. Waddling through the busy streets of Boston you just hope the duckling will find a home!”

The answer: the Boston Public Garden....until Mrs. Mallard almost gets run over by a bicycle!”
“If I recall correctly, this is about a family of ducks who make their home in the city, and everyone stops for them to move to a new home in the city's central park. If that IS this book, then I thought it was cute, and is a nice read for little one's.”
