Daddy Duck
0 views
For some reason, Donald adopts a baby. It turns out not to be a duck, but a kangaroo. Donald takes little Joey home and tries to make him take a bath, with the help of the friendly lady of the adoption bureau on the telephone telling him what to do. After the bath, Donald’s baby is scared by the rug made of a bear.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
Donald adopts what turns out to be a kangaroo. The mismatch-adoption plot recurs throughout the shorts because it puts Donald in the one role he is least suited to — responsible adult — and lets the comedy come from his sincere, doomed effort to do it properly.
