Yesterday Mrs Nicholson, our school librarian, read us Marmaduke Duke and the Marmalade Jam by Juliet MacIver. It was about a duck called Marmaduke and he was a very funny duck. He was funny because ducks usually don't make marmalade but this duck did. He loved marmalade so much he didn't want to share it.
One day an armadillo came to the pond and jumped into the pond and ate up all the marmalade jam with his really long tongue. Marmaduke was so so sad. His face was covered with tears.
The farmer decided to cheer Marmaduke Duck up by having a party. Everyone on the farm brought some food. It was a very happy ending.
We liked it because it was a rhyming book.
After Mrs Nicholson read this book (and a few others) we voted on our favourite. Nineteen people voted for Marmaduke Duck. It was awesome.
