Farmer Duck

by Martin Waddell

Published 25 October 1991
There was once a duck who lived with a lazy, old farmer. How goes the work? the farmer asked the duck each day as he lay in bed, and the poor duck fetched and carried, dug and sawed, washed up and ironed. At last all the animals on the farm had had enough - and took action.

Celebrate 25 years of Big Bear, Little Bear and their cosy cave in this gorgeous anniversary edition of a classic bedtime favourite.

Described as 'the most perfect children's book ever written', this is a beautiful 25th anniversary edition of the Kate Greenaway-winning story of Little Bear, who just can't sleep. There is dark all around him in the Bear Cave. Not even Big Bear's biggest lantern can light up the darkness of the night outside. Can Big Bear find a way to reassure restless Little Bear and help him fall fast asleep?
