Abby's class duck - Max - is banned from the school when it seems he has destroyed the papier mache Antarctica display the children have made for the most important assembly in the history of assemblies. Worse still, Abby's beloved teacher Mrs Melvino plans to leave with him! Abby and her friend Noah race against time to prove that Max is not the culprit, culminating in the important assembly, where Max (coated in poster paint) plays a starring role as a penguin and his ongoing presence in the classroom is assured.
