Guji Guji (Chinese-English Bilingual with Qr Code)

Guji Guji is not a crocodile, nor a duck, but a crocodile duck! A story that embodies love, tolerance, and self-identity. A crocodile egg that accidentally hits and rolls into a duck's nest, under the care of the duck mother, successfully hatches the baby crocodile Guji Guji. Although its appearance is very different from that of the duckling, my mother still treats it with the same affection as other brothers and sisters. Until Guji Guji meets three crocodiles with bad intentions, it falls into a series of inner struggles of resistance, depression, and self-doubt... The love and tolerance of the duck family for Guji Guji has long transcended race.
