Find out what happens when clumsy Duck tries not to wake Goat’s baby in this boisterous, toddler book with a pop-up surprise!

When Duck bounces in to Goat’s house, he certainly doesn’t expect to have to wait while the baby is being looked after. Duck tries to speed things up but, being Duck, he only manages to make them worse!

When will Goat and the baby be ready to go out for a drive with Duck?
