About The Book
Duck, the faster swimmer, and Gander, the higher flyer, compete in a zany freeze-in-place contest to determine which of them is the champion of champions, a challenge that proves more difficult than expected, as their rivalry is soon tested by bees, bunnies, crows, the wind, and a hungry fox.
