Following the side-splitting Total Quack Up! Total Quack Up Again! is full of ducks and other
animals, jokes, nose-picking, lots of fart stories, a potty stuck to a bottom,
dog food in party pies, another prize-winning story by a child, and lots more!
I read The
Duck Pond by nine year old Coby Sanchez first. I wanted to see what kind of
story written by a child could stand beside the work of so many outstanding
writers for children. I was not disappointed!
Children (and adults that love kids books), prepare
to be entertained, shocked and surprised. This short story collection is full
of funny, gross, hilarious, improbable and unbelievable stories that will have
children aghast by the concentration in one volume, of stuff they love to read
about.
Writers have been chosen to present their funniest
work here. Included are Nat Amoore, Adam Cece, Felice Arena, Jules Faber, Tim
Harris, Kim Kane, Belinda Murrell, A. L. Tait, Adrian Beck, Shelley Ware, Nova
Weetman and special tips for writing by Jacqueline Harvey to wind it all up. There
is also an About the Authors included which gives readers more information
about the chosen contributors.
Illustrations (with lots of ducks) by Jules Faber
add delight to an already delightful compilation. For those who enjoyed and
passed around their copy for others to enjoy, here is another gift for you. For
those who didn’t give the last edition to their children, here’s your chance to
get their noses stuck in a book and off their iPads.
As with the earlier collection, all royalties go to
Dymocks Children’s Charities.
