A little about Ducky Friends

The Ducky Friends Series, including Jovi Giraffe Learns To Look and Revony Rhinoceros Starts to Smile, is a children's book series dedicated to teaching social skills through beautifully-illustrated stories with endearing animal characters. The stories are set in Namibia, a country whose mission is the conservation of the environment and at risk species. Each book focuses on a specific social skill necessary for successful social interactions.

​The sequence of the series follows the natural progression of social skills development. For instance, the first book, Jovi Giraffe Learns To Look, starts with eye contact. Revony Rhinoceros Starts to Smile addresses body language. While the stories benefit children who struggle with social skills such as kids on the autism spectrum, with ADHD, or with social anxiety, they are meant to entertain all children and reinforce the skills they need to be successful in life. 

What people are saying

"Revony Rhinoceros Starts to Smile is a great resource for helping children learn foundational social skills. Like what they’ve done with Revony’s predecessor, Jovi Giraffe Learns to Look, the authors have expertly translated what the latest science says about how to teach social skills into a meaningful, approachable story. They’ve done so with brightly colored illustrations which clearly highlight facial expressions, eye contact, and other critical social skills that are taught through interactions between playful characters. I’ll be keeping Revony on my office shelf so I can refer parents to this very approachable and natural teaching tool."

"I LOVE your first book AND your second book! I want to see more, more and more! I have already tried Jovi Giraffe Learns to Look with my students. They love the animal characters and the wonderful facial expressions. The lesson on body language in Revony Rhinoceros Starts to Smile is wonderful. The page clarifying friendly and unfriendly behavior is perfect for any age. The books are a gift to all of us. Thank you for your creativity and wisdom!"
