Mr. Darcy the Dancing Duck
From the Series Mr. Darcy
With a furrowed brow, Mr. Darcy waddled around his garden. Mr. Darcy enjoyed waddling: but dancing?
Mr. Darcy dreads the first sign of spring. Flowers blooming means only one thing—dancing season, and Mr. Darcy simply cannot dance. What does it take for a proud duck to use his dancing feet? Can Lizzy convince Mr. Darcy to take a turn around the maypole? This delightful introduction to some of Jane Austen’s infamous characters includes stunning watercolors from award-winning illustrator Peter Carnavas.
