Content descriptions

Summary, etc.:
It's a perfect day for the beach. Mrs. Duck-billed Platypus, her children, and her egg set off for an outing by the sea. But the first beach does not allow animals with beaks. The next does not permit animals with fur. The platypus family is turned away again and again. On their journey, the platypuses meet many other animals in the same situation. Does Mrs. Duck-billed Platypus save the day for herself, her children, and the other animals? This witty and wise story explores themes of diversity and inclusion, bullying, and determination.
