Emily is a serious girl. She enjoys serious things like bird-watching, math, and playing the cello. But one day while she's taking a walk, Emily runs into Duck, who is anything but serious . . .

'Duck,' asked Emily. 'What are you wearing?'
'Socks!' yelled Duck.
'Ducks don't wear socks,' replied Emily seriously.
'Cold feet!' yelled Duck, and off he went.

Through a series of humorous run-ins, Duck teaches Emily the importance of laughing - especially at oneself. A witty and comical debut picture book, this hilariously illustrated story will have readers laughing along with Emily.
