NATIONAL BESTSELLER - CALDECOTT MEDAL WINNER - The cherished classic, available in a beautifully crafted package to celebrate 75 years! Perfect for fans of the Mallards and their adorable duckling clan, this beloved tale now comes with bonus material for a truly unforgettable gift!

"One of the merriest picture books ever."--The New York Times

Mrs. Mallard was sure that the pond in the Boston Public Gardens would be a perfect place for her and her eight ducklings to live. But when the busy streets of Boston become too risky for her and her family to navigate, the local police step in to make sure Mrs. Mallard and her ducklings--Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Ouack, Pack, and Quack--make it to their new home safely. A beautiful portrayal of one duck family's devotion and perseverance, this picture book is a wonderful representation of how families overcome hard times together and a compassionate reminder to trust in the goodness of humanity.

This beloved classic has been reimagined in the 75th-anniversary edition to include a full-color map of Boston, fancifully illustrated by Caldecott winner Paul Zelinsky, and comes complete with a CD-audio recording for a truly immersive experience.

Robert McCloskey (1914-2003) wrote and illustrated some of the most celebrated children's books ever published. Both Make Way for Ducklings and Time of Wonder were awarded the Caldecott Medal for the most distinguished picture book of the year, and Blueberries for Sal and One Morning in Maine were named Caldecott Honor Books.

McCloskey grew up in Hamilton, Ohio, the setting for Homer Price, his portrait of a quintessential American boyhood. He studied art at Vesper George School of Art in Boston, and continued his studies at the National Academy of Design in New York. He was awarded the Prix de Rome, but delayed his study abroad until after World War II. Subsequently he and his wife, Margaret Durand, moved to Maine, where their two daughters were raised, and where McCloskey found inspiration for many of his books.

Robert McCloskey's ducklings are immortalized as bronze statues in Boston's Public Gardens, and are visited by countless children. He leaves a legacy of books that have proved enduringly beloved.
