Illustrated by
John Bendall-Brunello.
Ten wood ducklings hatch high up in a tree and must make their first big leap to the ground below. The tenth duckling is last to hatch and, after lots of familial encouragement, the last to leap and join the others in the pond. Soft watercolor and colored-pencil illustrations pair with a pleasantly rhyming text in this gentle tale.
