The Adventures Of Knobby And Maddie Duck oleh Millie Orosz Van Horn

A story about the Muscovy Ducks who inhabit areas of Florida. They are a very gentle duck and not afraid of people. Their color is usually different patterns of black and white and they have a bright red crest around their eyes. They have many adventures in and around their Little Lake with the other animals including "The Mean Old Alligator", who is not mean at all, but very gentle. Little Baby Duck befriends him and names him Albert. I lived on a little lake where the Muscovy Ducks would come to my lanai every morning looking for the bread crumbs I always had available for them. After noticing their social behaviors with each other, I decided to give them each names and then imagined their many adventures with each other.
