Publisher's Summary

The classic story of finding fun on the farm from the nation’s favourite storyteller, Michael Morpurgo.

From Sir Michael Morpurgo comes a classic story of one small boy and one very lucky duck....

Sam is a city boy through and through - and isn’t looking forward to his school trip to Nethercott Farm at all.

But busy days of farm work, animals and learning all about nature weave their magic - and when Sam finds a duck about to be dinner, he is determined to save him. But how?

This warm and magical story is set on the real-life Nethercott Farm - a member of Farms for City Children - the charity that offers urban children from all over the country the chance to live and work together on a real farm and experience the magic of the English countryside.
