Mama is watching closely, though, and when she sees danger, she sounds the warning: QUACK QUACK QUACK and Dandelion scoots right back. But one day not even Mama sees the weasel waiting in the willows. Can Dandelion remember what Mama Quack had taught him this time, before itas too late?

Exploring the pond on his own and visiting his friends--Dragonfly, Little Polliwog, and the Centipedes--Dandelion Duckling keeps his ears open for his mother's quacks warning him of danger, but when his mother fails to see the weasel in the willows one afternoon, it is up to Dandelion to remember the lessons he's been taught.
