Bryant Oden

BRYANT ODEN is a well-loved composer of over 70 children's songs. As a child, Bryant rescued a duckling tangled in a fishing line. Since that fateful day, ducks from across the country have championed Bryant their hero, and named him an honorary duck-brother. Inspired by his fine-feathered friends, The Duck Song was Bryant's very first children's song to take flight.

When he is not quacking with his duck friends at the lake, Bryant can be found making up new songs as he waddles through the mountains near his home in Boulder, Colorado. Sometimes he sings about his favorite letter of the alphabet, or maybe his friend, Bob the Snail. And sometimes he even sings about vegetables from Grandma's garden. You can listen to more of Bryant's silly songs at SongDrops.com.

Forrest Whaley

FORREST WHALEY was only fourteen year old when he heard about a duck that wanted grapes. For weeks thereafter, as soon as his homework was done, he devoted all his spare time documenting the struggles of the talking duck, bringing its quest for grapes to the World Wide Web.

Heralding Forrest's humanitarian (or duckitarian) efforts, the Guild of Web-footed Friends bestowed the young filmmaker with the Distinguished Underage Kid Award (D.U.K. Award), helping him land his first book deal at age fifteen.

While Forrest has never given grapes to the local ducks near his home in St. Louis, Missouri, he does enjoy a waddle in the park with his trusty dog, Buster. When he is not doing schoolwork or hanging out with friends, Forrest dedicates himself to advancing his filmmaking career. His videos have attracted over 112,000,000 views and 115,000 fans.
