This is the continuing story of Nana and The Ducklings. Five ducklings who were hatched at Nana's house are now back in the wild. For the first six months of their lives they were nurtured by humans, never having to go hungry or face danger. Now that they are on their own, they must fend for themselves in order to survive. Every day they face the challenges of finding food and staying one step ahead of Nature's worst. They learn new skills, meet new friends and find time to play. The ducklings, who almost never had a chance at life, now have a new beginning. Happy in their lake home at last, they face the future together with their strong will to survive. Patsy is from Canada. She writes children's books and poetry. When she is not writing she likes going for long walks and getting in touch with nature. It is usually on her walks that the characters for her next book are born. This series is about the animals I have rescued or adopted. And, how they lived in my home for a time; some recuperating from their injuries, and others just needing some extra help to make it back to their home in the wild. There are eight books in this series. I am still helping animals whose stories may not make it into books. But, they are just as special. I would like everyone to have respect and compassion for animals. It is especially important to teach our children to respect them, and all of nature. Reading these books to your children is a good way to teach them the importance of respecting our wild friends and our pets.
