Having recovered from adventures related to a prankster co-worker, Marty Moose (so named because of an unfortunate ink blot on his birth certificate) is ready to enjoy his day off. And what better way to relax than to attend the Annual Little Ditch Fastest Feathers Race, where birds compete for a solid gold egg? But what\u2019s this? Celebrity judge Hurricane Honk missed the delivery of the prize, and unless Marty can retrieve it, the winners won\u2019t have anything to win! What starts as a simple job turns into a nightmare when two sneaky ferrets attempt to purloin the prize for themselves. Now Marty and his rabbit buddy Nibbles Frizzby find themselves accidentally running the race, dodging a pair of \u201cdastardly ducks,\u201d dipping into caverns full of stolen goods, and trying to reach the end without getting gobbled or pummeled along the way. Though he experiences moments of doubt, it\u2019s Marty\u2019s smarts that win the day by story\u2019s end, and the good-natured cacophony of chaos snowballs nicely. Line art in pinks and reds add to the pleasure of the hijinks, keeping young readers guessing as to what may happen next.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
