“A Heartwarming Tale of Love, Loss, and the Unbreakable Bond Between Man, Family, and One Remarkable Duck”
Some stories remind us that love isn’t limited to humans—that faith can be found in the most unexpected of creatures. Gramps and L.D. by Dr. Walter R. Hoge is one such story: a tender, true-to-life tale that begins with a chance encounter between a man and a fragile duckling… and grows into a lifelong testament to endurance, devotion, and divine purpose.
When Gramps discovers eight eggs abandoned by their mother, he faces an impossible choice—let nature take its course, or intervene. What hatches from that moment of compassion is L.D., a duck born with crippled legs, unable to swim, walk, or survive without help. But what begins as an act of mercy soon becomes a living parable. As Gramps and Grandma nurse L.D. through his struggles, they uncover something deeper than animal care—they find reflection, redemption, and a renewed sense of God’s grace in the face of hardship.
“A tender, faith-filled true story that proves even the smallest creature can leave the deepest imprint on the human heart.” – MainSpring Books
Through simple country wisdom and faith, Gramps and L.D. captures the beauty of perseverance in the face of pain, the strength found in family unity, and the quiet miracles that can emerge from ordinary life. L.D. becomes more than a pet—he becomes the Lord’s Disciple, a living reminder that even in weakness, there is divine purpose, and even in loss, love never leaves us.
Discover how one man’s compassion for a struggling duck blossomed into a lifelong lesson on faith, family, and the quiet miracles that remind us love endures through every season of life.
