Ducktails — Janette Oke

Quackery and his duckling brothers and sisters are very busy learning the ins and outs of being a duck--how to swim, where to eat, and how to steer clear of danger. They're anxious to grow up and know all there is to know--especially his brother Zackery.
Then Zackery and a friend decide to quit listening to their parents. When they head off to explore where it's not safe, Quackery doesn't know what to do. Will Quackery have to choose between doing the right thing or being with his friends?
