Send us Fan Mail Rubber ducks are turning up everywhere: on the door handles of parked Jeeps, in the deckchairs of cruise ships, left by strangers for strangers. Is there another reason they're suddenly appearing? On a vacation cruise, ten year old Immy Reed finds one hidden on deck. The tag reads "Love, Linda. Keep or hide, you decide." She keeps it as a present for her sister Bea. Back home, Mum tucks it into the airing cupboard to keep it warm, and it hatches. Pip calls like a bird, then speaks in the girls' own voices, and Mum can't stop feeding it. At night it sings the whole house to sleep. Only Dad starts to notice, because he was never paying much attention to his children in the first place.
