Join the adventure with this laugh-out-loud story about perseverance, delivery chaos and . . . cake! The second title in the hilarious Duck Delivers series.

Duck loves his life scooting around as a Delivery Duck for Feather Force. Though he may get into a few flaps here and there, his deliveries are somehow always on time.

But when he’s tasked with delivering a very tall, very large and very special cake to a party all the way across town, Duck realises he’ll need to trade his scooter in for something with a bit more power to get there by sunset.

Can this plucky Duck make it in time? Or will chaos be the only thing Duck delivers today?

Reviews

A very tall, very special cake has to reach a party before sunset, but Duck's trusty scooter may not be up to the job. Bright, funny, and perfect for 3+ year olds, the second Duck Delivers adventure turns a simple delivery into a chain of mishaps, vehicle swaps and resilient problem-solving as Duck desperately tries to keep his Feather Force reputation in one piece.

School Reading List

Duck has never been happier, he spends his days making deliveries for Feather
Force Delivery Service. Every day is fun, an adventure and exciting and every day
Duck is certain that he can overcome every challenge put in front of him, no
matter how hard. But can he stay true to that belief with the challege of cakes?
Did you know he delivered to a football stadium and scored a winnig goal, to a
theatre where he received a round of applause, and then there was the time he
accidentally posted himself... Surely no challenge is too big for Duck? When you
see the cake Duck has to deliver you might question his ability to deliver this time.
