Playing in the mud was one of the ducklings’ favorite pastimes—mud pies were the order of the day! Daddy Duck of Whisper Pond was written with a story line encompassing multiple characters and centered on the fun to be found living around Whisper Pond. Meet characters such as Sally Squirrel and Bandy the Bear Cub as they share the experience of becoming friends at Whisper Pond.

...And every day, the little ducklings would ask, "Momma, where's Daddy Duck?" Where's Daddy Duck uses animated characters to relay an answer to one of the most important questions mothers are asked, "Where's Dad?" For some parents, the answer is, "Away making sure we're safe." This book can be used as a gentle way for military families to explain why one parent is absent. It can also be used to explain to young children that regardless of how it looks, there is always someone looking out for your best interests. Take a trip to the little house on the little pond and see how Daddy Duck takes great lengths to ensure the safety of his little ducklings.

Ordinary days are magical when spent with those you love. Dad and his little girl, along with their very large bloodhound, set off on an ordinary day and turn it into a wonderful adventure. From dancing by a duck pond to swinging on a tire swing, lots of laughs and love are shared in time spent together. The day ends with a sweet "Goodnight, I love you" from Dad. And a whisper, "I love you more" from his little girl. This book is a delightful reminder that spending time together really matters. Simple moments, laughter and knowing you are loved builds lasting relationships.

A modern underground classic that spins yarns as the Sunday morning pig hunt and the Great Checker Showdown of 1978...and introduces Fup, a twenty-pound, whiskey-drinking mallard duck

A classic work of American literature that has not stopped changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive power of storytelling. The Things They Carried depicts the men of Alpha Company: Jimmy Cross, Henry Dobbins, Rat Kiley, Mitchell Sanders, Norman Bowker, Kiowa, and the character Tim O’Brien, who has survived his tour in Vietnam to become a father and writer at the age of forty-three. Taught everywhere—from high school classrooms to graduate seminars in creative writing—it has become required reading for any American and continues to challenge readers in their perceptions of fact and fiction, war and peace, courage and fear and longing. The Things They Carried won France's prestigious Prix du Meilleur Livre Etranger and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize; it was also a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award.
