Let me say right off that the illustrations in this little children's book are delightful. I loved the expressions on Donna the Ducks face. I began to chuckle from page one. Donna thought she was way above all the other ducks or the animals for that matter. She didn't want to get her feathers wet, or make honking and quacking sounds. She didn't want to do anything that a little duck should do! "Why", said Donna, " I should live in the big house on the hill!" Oh my! Big mistake Donna! Donna is not greeted quite as she expected as she prances up to the owner of the big house on the hill. Would Donna be on the dinner table that night? You'll have to read this tale to find out. A great little story, teaching children to appreciate who they are and not try to be someone they are not. I think we all, children included, know some people who would benefit from the lesson in this story. Your children will get a good chuckle out of the antics of Donna the Duck and tucked within is a lesson they can use for life. A very good read!--Shirley Johnson/Reviewer

Don't ruffle her feathers. Don't get her upset.
Prima Donna Duck won't even get wet.
The other ducks say, "She's really quite vain.
Why, Prima Donna Duck won't go out in the rain!?
Prima Donna Duck once mentioned to Mouse,
?The barnyard's too trashy. I belong in a house.?
She grumbled to Goose, "The pond is too chilly.
And all of that diving just makes one look silly!?
?Why, honking and quacking disturb those nice folks
who live in the house beyond the tall oaks.?
?I'm sure they would rather have me at their side
to admire my feathers and watch me with pride.?
?I know I'm quite special,? Prima Donna told Owl.
?And I'll prove to you all that I'm a superior fowl.?
