This classic picture book with split pages that allow the visual jokes to unfold, celebrates its 15th anniversary in this new edition featuring extra content from the multi-award winning Emily Gravett.

All the birds have eggs to hatch. All except Duck. But when Duck finds an egg of his own to look after he's delighted – it's the most beautiful egg in the whole world! But all the other birds think it's a very odd egg indeed – and everyone's in for a BIG surprise when it finally hatches.

A beautifully illustrated and cleverly formatted tale with a surprise ending that's bound to ruffle some feathers!
