Summary |
Story and songs Connie Kaldor Illustrations Fil & Julie
A story about a little duck with a big dream and his lonesome journey to New York City in hopes of bringing his ducky dance to the Broadway stage. Along the way, issues of courage, self-esteem, friendship and encouragement are addressed. There’s a strong urge to cheer on this little guy in this never-give-up-on-your dreams narrative. The album includes 12 happy-go-lucky songs such as “Quack, Quack, Quack” and “I Love Tomatoes.” Quirky and fun artwork adds to the book’s jovial tone.

She has toured around the world, received five Junos and a Western Literature Award, and is a member of the Order of Canada. Her song, “Wood River” is considered by many to be the quintessential Prairie folk ballad. Her publications include A Poodle in Paris and Lullaby Berceuse.
