'Duck, Death and the Tulip is now my favourite book of all time.'
Kim Hill, Radio New Zealand National
In a strangely heart-warming story, a duck strikes up an unlikely friendship with Death.
“Who are you? Why are you creeping along behind me?”
“Good. You’ve finally noticed me,” said Death.
“I am Death.”
Duck was scared stiff. You could hardly blame her for that.
Duck, Death and the Tulip will intrigue, haunt and enchant teenagers and adults as well as children.
Simple, unusual, warm and witty — a picture book version of The Book Thief. This book deals with a difficult subject in a way that is warm, elegant, straightforward, and thought-provoking.
