🦆Duck Goes Meow🐈
Everyone knows that ducks always say quack... or do they?
A little yellow duckling is amongst animal friends who are all sure of the sounds they make: hiss, neigh, moo, cheep, cluck, and oink. But when Duck goes “meow,” the other animals say no, that is wrong, try again… then Duck’s mama arrives, and boy, do they get a surprise!
