There’s something special about a book that makes both kids and adults laugh at the same time. Docs & Ducks: A Quakery of Poems by Hannah is exactly that kind of book. It’s light, funny, and a little bit thoughtful in ways you don’t expect until you’ve turned the page.
The poems are short and easy to read, the kind you can slip into a bedtime routine or a classroom break. They rhyme, they bounce, and sometimes they surprise you with a small truth hidden inside the silliness. A duck turns out to be a doctor who hands you a bill instead of a cure. A polite elephant joins for tea. A porcupine just wants someone to scratch his back — and that never goes well. It’s playful, but you can tell there’s a lot of love behind it.
Parents will find themselves grinning because the book reminds them what simple fun feels like. Teachers will spot how easily the poems sneak in little lessons about words, rhythm, and ideas. It’s the kind of poetry that doesn’t feel like “learning,” but it sticks. Some pieces even work as quick classroom starters for discussions about kindness, curiosity, or just how weird and wonderful language can be.
One poem about a sore finger becomes a reminder to be grateful. Another one, “Individuality,” jokes about how everyone tries to be different in the same exact way. There’s humor, but there’s also heart — the kind that sneaks up on you halfway through reading aloud.
The tone is never preachy. It’s honest, warm, and feels like someone sitting next to you, telling stories that rhyme. You can almost hear Hannah smiling while she writes.
About the Author
Hannah grew up in Kansas City before moving to New York, and you can feel both places in her writing — calm mixed with spark. She started writing poems when she was a kid, turning little moments into rhymes just to make sense of the world around her.
Life gave her a fair share of ups and downs. After the loss of her child, writing turned into something deeper. It became her way of healing, remembering, and still finding laughter in the middle of pain. Docs & Ducks was born from that mix of heartache and hope — it’s filled with joy, but there’s truth underneath every line.
She often mentions Shel Silverstein and Robert Frost as her inspirations, and once you read her work, you’ll see it. She has that same gift — the ability to write something funny, then stop you with a quiet thought.
These days, Hannah works as a math consultant, raising her family and somehow finding creativity even in numbers. She says humor is a kind of grace, and that’s exactly what her poems feel like — graceful, a bit goofy, and always real.
Why This Book Feels Different
Docs & Ducks: A Quakery of Poems doesn’t try too hard. It’s fun without being forced, smart without sounding clever. It’s the sort of book you pick up just to skim a few pages and end up reading all of it because you’re smiling too much to stop.
Kids love it because it’s funny. Parents love it because it feels familiar. Teachers love it because it works in the classroom. And honestly, that’s probably the best kind of book there is — the one that makes everyone happy without even trying.
The book is available now on Amazon for families, teachers, and classrooms that love laughter, rhythm, and good stories.
