 The story is about a raccoon named Waddles and a duck named Emily. They were friends and had fun together. One day when Waddles wanted to play with Emily couldn't because she was sitting on her eggs. She wanted to swim but couldn't so Waddles sat on them. Later on they hatched and  they all spent together. When the ducks all had to leave till warmer weather, Waddles was sad. Nothing seemed the same. The one day he heard the sound of quaking ducks and it was Emily and her ducklings returning. Waddles was so Happy.

This is a good story to teach about friendship and helping friends.
