Biskit and the Bread Bonanza
When the whole neighborhood shows up at the pond with bags of bread, Biskit knows something has gone very wrong. With help from his family, one loud duck sets out to teach an entire town what ducks should really eat.
The Series
Biskit's Books
Big, bright picture books about a small duck learning that the world does not, in fact, run on his schedule.
Biskit Becomes a Big Brother
Biskit has the pond exactly how he likes it. Then two new ducks arrive, and neither of them has read his rules. A warm, funny story about making room for someone new... even when you did not ask for them.

About
One duck, one loud family, a lot of stories
The Biskit books started the way most family stories do: with something that actually happened, retold until it got funnier.
Biskit is a real duck. The family in the books is a real family, drawn as themselves and going by the nicknames they actually use. The stories come out of ordinary days at the pond, and each one carries something small and true underneath the noise: feed animals kindly, make room for someone new, pay attention to the people you love.
They are written to be read out loud, laughed at, and asked for again the next night.
