Description
Five-year-old Amy loves to play in the snow around her house, and one cold day she finds an injured mallard in the garden. Amy decides to take care of it, calling it Lucky. They quickly become good friends, and Lucky is even invited as a guest to Christmas dinner. Over time the mallard gets better, and although it is difficult, Amy has to set Lucky free so he can return to where he belongs. A captivating true story set in Finland, this heartwarming and gorgeously illustrated tale about the fragility of nature teaches children that you can care for wild animals and let go at the same time.
