Product Description |
|
My fellow Americans: It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land. Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck. We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America. Thank you for your vote. |

Duck for President |
|
A must have in an Election year. This book is more fun for the adult reading it to the child. Timely too, this is Duck for President 2008. |

I'd vote for him |
Considering the present elections, I felt this was an appropriate book to pick instead of the political madness.
When Duck sees unfairness on the farm, he decides to change things (always with the hope of making things easier for himself). He runs for farmer (this is a democratic barnyard) and this political career shoots off from there.
The story runs on the same joke of ballots, but it's all funny and reminiscent of the Florida incident. But what really makes this a charmer is the nonchalant way everything plays out and the universal acceptance that animals can run for office and still be second-class barn yard animals. |

Adults will love reading this to the little ones! |

Cronin books always tickle my funnybone, so it's fun to read them to the little kids, especially since we will read them 1000 times over the next few years! |
