| Comic Story | Wheeled Wooden Ducklings / Raggedy Animals (6 pages) |
| Synopsis | Rollerskating, L.B. exhorts Eddie to speed, who demurs, comments he isn't built for it, sits on a log, removes the skates, tosses them, hitting Quacky who sits on her eggs. She leaves Eddie in charge, going for groceries. The ducklings hatch, see L.B.'s skates, return to their shells, regrow their legs and feet as wheels, lead the boys a merry chase on the water. Catching 'em in the overturned canoe, the boys see Quacky returning, angry. Ducklings skate off, Quacky weeps she can't catch 'em. Eddie gives her his skates, solving her problem, and his! |
| Genre | Anthropomorphic-funny Animals |

| First Line | Hey, L.B., not so fast! |
| Notes | Copr. 1945 by Johnny Gruelle Co. Writer credit per Du Bois Account Books. Toy wooden ducklings hatch from eggs? Then return to their shells to regrow their wooden legs and feet as wooden wheels? This is the elf-land of make-belief! But elf-land has internal rules, so when Quacky has no wheels for feet by which to catch her children, it isn't stated, but the logic is implicit why she can't likewise morph herself: not being newly hatched, she hasn't an eggshell to return to for regrowth. Her problem provides Eddie the opportunity to be of further assistance (he has already helped her by sitting on her eggs for her when she leaves for groceries). Barrier puts it this way in Funnybooks (UC Press, Oakland, 2015), p.126: "...what happened in his stories [were] plausible on the stories' own terms." Plausibility "in which sympathetic characters support one another." |
