Así nace… un pato

This book traces the life cycle of the mallard duck from egg to adult. The female protects her eggs from land, water, and flying predators and then teaches her ducklings how to survive. As the mallard’s life cycle is described, we learn about its habitat, adaptations, and migratory habits. The book has a unique format, with pages “growing” along with the ducklings, and features a Glossary/Index and graphics summarizing the life cycle of the duck.
