This is a great book, with the morals that I am happy to teach my children. I was a RVS fan already, but this book just makes me an even bigger fan!

Each Ricky Van Shelton book contains humor and love. Mr. Van Shelton adds an important moral to each book. My wife's pre-K class at the public school loves all of the Quacker stories.

I love this book....I think it teaches children to think before they act...a lesson they all need to be taught. Sometimes our actions have negative outcome, and sometimes that causes accidents......Children love these books....My daughter often refers to Quacker. She will remind me not to scare her!!! Way to Go Ricky great books....We Love them

Country singer Ricky Van Shelton tells a warm fable in this brightly illustrated effort. Quacker is a duck who likes to wag his tale like a dog. Told in rhymes this short story should hold the interest of even the youngest child. It presents a positive message of acceptance and brotherhood in a manner that will not be lost on small children. However, parents should be careful. This book's overall moral could be distorted by schools with a politically correct axe to grind. The message of acknowledging individual differences could be twisted into an endorsement of alternative lifestyles. That was clearly not the author's intent.
