Early voting

Hi! I'm waiting in line to vote early at the Broward County Library. It's a beautiful day, so I don't mind the long wait outside.

 

Look who I bumped into at the polls!

 

I think I know who is getting my duck friend's vote . . .

Quack!

There are lots and lots of picture books about ducks. These are my favorites:


Waddell, Martin, and Helen Oxenbury. Farmer Duck. Cambridge, Mass: Candlewick Press, 1992.


Tafuri, Nancy. Have You Seen My Duckling? New York: Greenwillow Books, 1984.


McCloskey, Robert. Make Way for Ducklings. New York: Viking Press, 1941.


Flack, Marjorie, and Kurt Wiese. The Story About Ping. New York: Viking Press, 1933.


Pinkney, Jerry, and H. C. Andersen. The Ugly Duckling. New York: Morrow Junior Books, 1999.

ps. Today is the birthday of Hans Christian Andersen, the originator of the Ugly Duckling story.
