Product description

Even the most delightful ducks can have a bad day . . .
What’s the matter with Dick the Duck? He’s usually so kind and friendly!
But today Dick got out on The Wrong Side of Bed. He feels humpy and grumpy, cranky and cross. Can anyone help cheer him up?
Luckily Dick’s friends rally round and shower him with kindness, and Dick is soon back to his usual delightful self!
This magnificently funny rhyming story shows that even the most delightful ducks can have a bad day. (And that’s totally okay!)

Children will adore this hilarious rhyming story by the much-loved author of the PONGWIFFY books

Kaye Umansky is one of the funniest children’s writers around. This brilliant rhyming story is a joy to read aloud, and has echoes of Dr Seuss

Ben Mantle’s superb colourful illustrations bring every character to life. Each page is packed with fabulous, funny details
Full of warmth and humour, Dick the Delightful Duck shows even the youngest children that it’s okay not to be okay, and how they can be a good friend

Kaye Umansky

Kaye Umanksy has written many books for children, from picture books to novels, and is probably best known for the Pongwiffy books.

As a child Kaye lived in Plymouth, Devon and spent lots of time on the beach. She was a bit of a daydreamer at school, but loved music and performing and writing her own stories.

Before becoming a children’s author, Kaye has acted, been a post woman, folded sheets in a laundry, taught in primary schools and sung in soul bands.

She now lives in North London with her husband, daughter and two cats.
