The Tale of the Mandarin Duck

Inspired by the real-life appearance of a rainbow-colored Mandarin Duck in Central Park, Bette Midler's modern fable explores themes of connection and perception through the story of a mysterious duck and a perceptive child. Set against a fantastical version of New York City, the audiobook encourages listeners of all ages to appreciate the beauty and significance of what surrounds them. An afterword by Ms. Kakutani provides additional insights behind this unique story.
