Arkwright the duck

Arkwright the duck returns!

Arkwright the duck has been away on his travels – I think he calls it his “migration”.  I didn’t know ducks migrated, did you?

Anyway, he’s not been around for over a year and has just returned from the other side of the world. He’s delighted to be back and so are we! …because you can now pick up your own Arkwright soft toy here.

Arkwright’s travels also coincided with us selling out his book, “Arkwright the Duck”, which is the title of his first adventure around the millyard at Cromford where he was hatched.  So we’ve had his book reprinted and you can purchase it here.
