The Ucky Mucky Duck is an adorable and funny tale that teaches kids an important lesson about listening to their parents. Little Duck’s misadventure in the muck is both entertaining and relatable for young readers, and the colorful illustrations bring the story to life. My favorite part was how it gently emphasized learning from mistakes without being preachy—it’s a story my kids ask to read again and again!
Thank you for allowing me to read and review.
A really great short read for younger children, about always listening to your elders.
This book is quacking awesome! 🦆 The Ucky Mucky Duck had me and my little one giggling and gasping as Little Duck went on his messy adventure. It’s got everything—puddles, panic, and a big-hearted farmer rescue. Plus, it sneaks in a sweet lesson about listening to Mom (genius, right?). If you want a story that’s as fun as it is meaningful, grab this one! 🌟💦
What a lovely children’s book! The little duck on the farm learns an important lesson in obedience he won’t soon forget. Small children will easily understand the story and enjoy the rhyming words and many animals to find. I love the perfect simplicity in these pages. I love that the author was only 10 years old when she wrote it. And I love the vibrant illustrations that enhance the story perfectly. Buy this book with a plush duck for the perfect gift for the little one in your life. I wish I could give it 10 stars!

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!
This is a cute picture book about a little duck who does not listen to his mama and gets stuck in muck. The little duck I luckily rescued, and learns his lesson. My 3yo enjoyed the story and illustrations. The story was written by a 10 yo little girl but now she’s grown and having her own kids and her parents self published this book. I thought it was really sweet!
This is a cute story written by a little girl, and her parents are now publishing it upon the birth of her first child. This is so heartwarming, but the story is also really touching with wonderful pictures.
The Ucky Mucky Duck learns a lesson about listening to his mom after getting stuck in the muck (that she warned him about, thank you very much). I felt this story as a parent, as we give warnings about things and kids still seem to have to experience it for themselves. It's a funny rhyming story with cute illustrations that hold a kiddo's attention.
Thanks to the author and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
