Clamord is Kind
Fruit Fables is a collection of nine children's stories that uses the adventures of talking animals to illustrate the godly character traits that the Apostle Paul talks about in Galatians, known as The Fruit of the Spirit. In book 5 of the Fruit Fables series (illustrating kindness), Clamord, a boisterous, mallard duck, discovers a marshland paradise. But when he enthusiastically joins in their evening symphony, he is harshly made aware that he is not a songbird.
