Every year, I bake my children a birthday cake designed around their favourite book. This year my daughter chose Duck in a Truck<\/em>! This fabulous series by Jez Alborough is her absolute favourite and she can read several of the books off by heart.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Birthday<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

It all started when we read Fix it Duck<\/em>. While it\u2019s not the first in the series it works fine as a standalone and is packed with hilarious calamitous ways Duck tries to fix things.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Plop goes the drip that drops in the cup. Duck looks down and Duck looks up.<\/em> It\u2019s a leak in the roof! He needs some help from his friend Sheep but Sheep has problems of their own and soon things go from bad to worse\u2026<\/p>\n

My daughter fell in love with Duck and soon we wanted to find out how Duck became friends with Sheep, Frog and Goat. This unlikely friendship started when Duck\u2019s truck got stuck in the muck!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Duck in a Truck<\/em> is the first book in the series and is great to read along. It is also the book my daughter wanted to base her cake around.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Birthday<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

This is the tale of a duck in a truck \u2013<\/em>
a truck that was stuck in some yucky brown muck.<\/em>
A sheep in a jeep and a frog in a bush<\/em>
saw the truck stuck and gave it a push.<\/em>
But the truck stayed stuck!<\/em>
What now, can you guess?<\/em>
Could a goat in a boat<\/em>
get them out of this mess?<\/em><\/p>\n

If you find your children get as hooked on this series as my daughter, have no fear, Super Duck<\/em> is here! We were so pleased to discover further books in the series for give us more funny adventures with Duck, Sheep, Goat and Frog.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Goat is eager to try out his new kite with the help of friends, Sheep and Frog. But, just they are about to see if it will fly, Super Duck arrives in his super truck. And, as always when Duck is around, things are bound to go wrong! Indeed it is not long before Frog is carried up into the sky on the end of the kite\u2019s string. Poor Frog! Can Super Duck save the day?<\/p>\n
