Meet Caper, a duck afraid of being different; and listen to how her story transforms from a fear of non-acceptance to one of true self-discovery. Once her secret was revealed Caper decided she no longer wanted to hide, so she embarked on a journey of self-acceptance. As she ventured she stumbled upon a beautiful garden and met wonderful ducks who were as unique as the splendid flowers that surrounded them. Caper finally accepted her uniqueness and was embraced by others who celebrated diversity.
