Me and Dad Cooked a Duck

By Wyatt L. Jefferies and Rain Patton

When Juniors parents break up, he reflects back to a simpler time when he and his father would visit the local park and feed the ducks. In an effort to bridge the past with his current reality, Junior asks his dad if they can visit a restaurant to eat duck during his next visit to Atlanta over the Thanksgiving holiday. His dad suggests they cook a duck instead. They not only cook it, but they record it to create a lasting memory.

Wyatt L. Jefferies

In his debut as a children's book author, Wyatt stays close to his heart by telling a story that explores how his son interpreted the breakup of his parents. His son, Junior, doesn't handle the separation with anger or frustration, instead he chooses to cling to memories of he and his father feeding ducks at the local park. Though Wyatt was able see his son regularly, they were separated geographically - he in Northwest Arkansas and Junior in Atlanta, Georgia. He wrote the book as a way to cope with his new life as a co-parent to a son he was accustomed to seeing every day. Wyatt observes his subject matter (son) with a keen sensibility and translates it directly to parents and children with a familiar tone. His hope is that families learn to heal and focus on positivity after experiencing potentially life transformational shifts. For more than 10 years, Wyatt has enjoyed a career as an award-winning integrated marketing communications professional, helping some of the world's largest and most endearing brands propel to higher dimensions.
