Duck Can't Rhyme

Does your child (or you!) ever feel frustrated when something doesn’t come easily? Duck knows that feeling all too well!

Duck Can’t Rhyme is a warm, funny picture book that helps young children build early rhyming and phonics awareness — while learning an important lesson about confidence, perseverance, and being themselves.

Duck loves words, but no matter how hard he tries, the rhymes just won’t come out right. This book can be read as is, or you can also read in a way which allows your child to come up with the rhymes that duck can't, and eventually Duck will hopefully discover that everyone has their own strengths, even him.

With playful language, charming illustrations, and a reassuring message, this story is perfect for:

• Building early rhyming and listening skills

• Encouraging confidence and self-belief, especially for Children who feel they're “not good” at something (yet!)

• Bedtime reading and story time

• A great fun read for parents too
  
  Perfect for ages 3–6, Duck Can’t Rhyme is a delightful read-aloud for parents, grandparents, teachers, and carers — and a gentle reminder that it’s okay to learn at your own pace.

A lovely, unique addition to any child’s bookshelf.
