SHORT-LISTED: 2023 NSW Premier’s Literary Awards, Patricia Wrightson Prize for Children’s Literature<\/strong>
\n<\/em>
\nChasing cows and pigs. Mockery. Rude songs. Piracy, bullying, revenge, warfare and general thuggery.<\/em>
\n<\/em>
\nThis is the list of approved duck activities and it does NOT include poetry. <\/em><\/p>\n

The ducks of Little Dismal are angry. A scruffy chicken called Clara has been telling lies about them. They need revenge. <\/p>\n

Enter Rita – a duck with the soul of a poet. After an embarrassing talent night, Rita sees revenge on Clara as a chance to restore her reputation. <\/p>\n

But Rita finds more than revenge on her mission. She uncovers a dastardly plan to chook-nap the clever chicken that will take them both a long way from home. <\/p>\n

Luckily, it’s Rita’s unlikely friendship with a small human and the help of some street-smart birds that just might save the day and inspire an epic poem! <\/p>\n

‘Jealousy, revenge, crime, adventure, duck poetry and laugh-out-loud comedy;?Rita’s Revenge<\/em>?has it all! I adore this book.’ Katrina Nannestad, author of The Girl, the Dog and the Writer in Rome<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
