It's a long way down. Will they jump?
If you were born high up in a tree, would you jump to the ground? That's what Wood Ducks are supposed to do, but three little ducklings aren't so sure. Mama Wood Duck calls for them to come, but her babies just won't budge Will they find their courage when Mama tells them all about a Wood Duck's wonderful life?
