Description

From the New York Times bestselling creators of Click, Clack, Moo, comes an entertaning introduction to politics. "My fellow Americans:It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land.Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck.We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America.Thank you for your vote." Doreen Cronin was a practicing attorney in Manhattan when her first book Click, Clack Moo: Cows That Type became a publishing success. But her book was not published overnight, in fact, she had written this barnyard tale even before attending law school but only received rejection letters from publishers. Five years after submitting the original manuscript she got a call from a publisher who wanted to turn her story into a book and the rest is history! The busy life of a writer left no room for courtroom litigation and arbitration so Doreen made the leap to being a full-time children"s book author. She then teamed up once again with illustrator Betsy Lewin to write another hilarious barnyard tale, Giggle, Giggle, Quack, that continues the escapades of these lovable animals on a farm. In Doreen"s latest book, Diary of a Worm, she explores the daily life of a lovable worm. Who knew that the underground dwellings and activities of worms could be so funny. Readers may even find that worm"s life is much the same as theirs except worm eats his homework and his head looks a whole lot like his rear! Doreen was born in Queens and grew up in Long Island. She graduated from Pennsylvannia State University and St. John"s University School of Law. She currently resides in New York with her husband and dog "Ruffie." Betsy Lewin is the Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator of CLICK, CLACK, MOO: COWS THAT TYPE and its sequels, GIGGLE, GIGGLE, QUACK; DUCK FOR PRESIDENT; in addition to a number of other picture books and early readers. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
