It was a quiet night until—knock, knock, knock!—can that be a DUCK at the door?? Max the duck burst on the scene in this funny picture book. Preschoolers and those reading to them enjoy giggling along as the animals cause havoc—but always with good intentions. Max and Brody the dog, Dakota the cat, and Bebe the bird race about in their hilarious adventures in Duck at the Door, Duck Soup, Duck and Cover, Sitting Duck. Ducks in a Row, and Happy Go Ducky. Read them all...you'll quack up!

When Brody's niece Anabel comes for a visit, Max and the gang's only job is to keep her out of trouble. How hard could it be to babysit a puppy anyway? To Max's surprise, this fun-loving pup can't help getting into trouble—especially when set loose in the backyard. Turns out being a “sitting duck” is a lot harder than Max expected! In this hilarious Max the Duck book, children will delight in the silly mayhem that results when Max tries to be a good babysitter.

One winter night, a cozy house full of animals is awakened by a knock at the front door. They have no idea what they'll find on the other side, and Max the duck is the last thing they expect. Soon this larger-than-life houseguest is making himself at home—and forcing his way into the hearts of his reluctant hosts.

When Max the duck decides to stay behind when his flock flies south, Irene invites him to stay with her and her pets for the winter.

Max wants to feel needed, but no one wants his help with anything. Then his aunts show up for a visit—and they need his help with everything. Between making their snacks, running their baths, fixing their appliances, and preparing their beds, Max is exhausted. Will they ever leave so Max can get back to relaxing?
