Robert McCloskey's Make Way for Ducklings is a cherished children's classic following Mr. and Mrs. Mallard as they search for the perfect place to raise their ducklings in Boston. Through McCloskey's charming illustrations and gentle narrative, the story celebrates family, perseverance, and the kindness of strangers. The book becomes a timeless exploration of home, belonging, and how community comes together to help those in need.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because McCloskey understood that children's books can teach without preaching, and that the best stories show rather than tell. Make Way for Ducklings reminds us that the smallest journeys can be adventures, and that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
