Jemima doesn't like that her eggs are take to be brooded on by a hen so she goes to the woods to have a private nest and is given some dubious help. ( )

Book description
Poor Jemima. All she wants to do is lay her eggs in peace, and be allowed to hatch them herself. At last she flies off and finds the perfect place. Little does the silly duck realise that the charming gentleman who has lent her his woodshed is busily planning a delicious meal of . . . roast duck!
