HarperCollins has acquired Eric Carle's latest book, 10 LITTLE RUBBER DUCKS, which will be published simultaneously in the UK, North America, Australia and New Zealand in February 2005.
10 LITTLE RUBBER DUCKS is based on the true story of the rubber ducks that fell overboard from a container ship en route from China to Seattle during a storm in 1992. These rubber ducks, carried by the ocean currents, have been washing up on shores all around the world.
Carle says, from his studio in Northampton, Massachusetts: "I am pleased that this book will be published around the world by HarperCollins, just as these ducks have travelled around the world on their long journey"
