Webster's a little duck-or is he? He certainly looks like a duck, with webbed feet, a bill, and downy feathers. He likes to eat the things ducks eat, especially earthworms and grass. He quacks like a duck, and all his brothers and sisters are ducks, so he must be a duck too, right?
Webster doesn't think so. Ducks are supposed to love water, but he's not a very good swimmer. He swims so badly other ducks tease him about it.
If he's not a duck, then what is he? Webster decides to find out. So with his mother's permission (and a packed lunch) Webster sets out to discover what he is. Along the way he discovers that perhaps, just perhaps, being a duck means more than just swimming.
A sweet, inspiring story about recognizing one's true potential, Adventures at Pebble Pond: Webster's Journey will delight boys and girls aged four to seven, and remind all readers that while no one is good at everything, we all have our own unique talents.
About the Author: Joy Ann Daffern is an entertainment executive residing in Los Angeles. She holds a master's degree in business administration, and although she loves her job, she has always longed to write children's books.
Daffern grew up in San Francisco and never had an opportunity to learn to swim. She's married with three children, and everyone in the family (including the bulldog) swims better than she does. Being the aquatic outsider inspired her to write Adventures at Pebble Pond: Webster's Journey.
